Looks like the River Leven has overflowed …
Did it oveflow at the Fourstones papermill (was Smith Anderstones) ?

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…

It can be bad where a rift in any family is concerned … I know.
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,

Morning, Another wild day…Sigh. went to the pool and to drink my coffee at the ocean, WOW, the waves were high and rough while I was there. It’s a day of waiting around for a delivery, if it comes. The cliff roads are dangerous in these winds, I certainly wouldn’t be driving on any.
Hope it’s better where you are, audiobook and jigsaw for me this afternoon.
Enjoy your day everyone
Morning. Still a bit wild here at the moment, but the wind seems to be dying down. Hairdresser for me this morning wish me luck it doesn’t get blown away. Need a few bits and pieces from the shops then get the bus home.
Morning, er, afternoon. Brighter but with an ominous cloud in the distance.
I’m deeply worried about our local vet being able to enjoy Christmas. So, I’m taking our elder cat for a check up, which should pay for a few aperitifs on Xmas morning. This will hopefully lead to some dental work on Chocs under anaesthetic within the next week or so, and thus contribute towards these aperitifs being served to the vet somewhere foreign and warm, by appropriate staff.
I’m sure yiur vet loves you @Dextrous63 
At least the rough weather has gone… oh, I can’t wait till spring gets here.
It’s the wrong timeof the year now to shed some tonnage but I must try! 
Fear not, for the boiler in the flat we rent out has decided it’s time to give a gas safe fella £400 for a £50 part to be fitted (within 20 mins). I know about this, because I’ve gone it myself at home in the past because it’s a water valve and simple. But in a rental, it’s got to be done by the book. 
Christmas dinner is starting to look like a cheapo pot noodle between the two of us.
Blimey … would it be cheaper for you to pass a Gas Fitter’s certificate yourself.
Trouble with being a landlord is you can’t even defer it a bit can you … like till Spring.

Exactly. It needs doing asap, which is fair enough. This is on the back of the washing machine in the same flat going on the blink a couple of weeks ago.
