It's raining steadily here in Norwich but the wind has dropped a lot, hope it stays away while o.h. goes to work at 5.30am, altho he is using the car. Have to go out looking for a runabout this afternoon so hope the weather eases a bit.

My thoughts go to all those people who have nowhere warm and dry to shelter.
