I wish to withdraw my complaints over the summer about the heatwave, and have it return to us for a bit. !!!

It’s been a bit gusty all day … but supposed to be getting rather rough overnight.
I’m snug inside.

Evening, It’s really getting noisy here, the wind is howling down the chimneys and shaking the house too. I hate this weather it scares me sometimes and tonight is one of those times. 
We have a really tall chimney at the living room fire and I’m always scared it will come crashing down into the house when it blows like this, or if it went the other way it would land on top of the cars. 
We’re under an Amber warning for the next 24 hours, Trains are off so are Buses and the Ferries have been off for hours, since the sea started roaring. We’ve been told not to drive anywhere unless it’s a real emergency. Sheeeze I wish this was over, AND, AND, it’s to be like this again on Tuesday/Wednesday next week. 
Stay safe everyone.

We had gale force winds earlier on but it is a lot calmer here at the moment. I hope the storm passes without too much damage for you Rox up there in the north. I think the clocks go back an hour tonight.

Looks like the River Leven has overflowed …
Did it oveflow at the Fourstones papermill (was Smith Anderstones) ?
no idea , i believe that’s in Fife ?my son lives near Dumbarton that’s how i know the town was flooded … Looks like i put an old clip on the flooding ,soz , i’ll try and find an up to date one …
this is the best i can find at the moment …>
OK. Maybe there is another Leven on the west coast that has had flooding ?
To be honest, not having a particularly great day. It’s our estranged son’s birthday today and we’re kinda down about it.
Ho hum.
Tomorrow is another day…

Hugs to you Dex …XX
I can’t complain about the weather here … though even here it was blinkin gusty and rough in the night. I could hear stuff bouncing about as it blew over the roof and a couple of objects hit the windows. Nothing like Scotland though …
Believe it or not I could hear someone letting off fireworls last night.

Did you let Mr Morty in, in the end? 
No! He’d managed to escape outside hours earlier.

Good morning. Hope everyone escaped the storm without to much damage. Had a lovely time in Rome seeing the sights but crowds everywhere. Also a lot of walking everywhere, still its good to be back home.

Morning Jess, Glad you enjoyed it BUT, you’ve walked straight into the 3rd storm. From tonight and most of tomorrow, warnings are out. Your lucky you moved from Largs what a mess there, been watching it on the STV News.
Another at home day for me I couldn’t keep upright outside yesterday the wind was so strong, Dunc’s out fixing fences just now, hope they don’t come down again tomorrow.
I’m just faffing about in the house doing whatever I can find to do. Might venture out to Tesco later then have a coffee at The Front and watch the ocean for a bit.
Enjoy your day everyone.
Good evening stayed home today and just faffed about. Rox I seen the Largs om the news and I’ve never seen the flooding so bad. I’ve seen it when the water coming up over the sea wall,
