That's a car
Sunbeam Alpine, nice run-around.

As long as you're not concerned with build quality or performance.
The Sunbeam Tiger, however, is a very different proposition.
On my headstone it will say: Please switch off mobile phones. I'm trying to get some sleep.

Very cold foggy and frosty all day today. I'm glad I got out in the garden over the last few days and got some work done.

60 -80 kmph gusts here but fortunately not expected to get any worse according to Ventusky.
All hatches well & truly battened down just in case although we expect to be replacing a few 'leccy fence piquets when storm Eustice abates.
Much worse in the SW of England where our kids live with gusts in the 120 -140 kmph range

A second emergency Cobra meeting takes place later to discuss the government's storm response.
