[Sparkle]

Blowing a hooley here as usual but as OH said we're getting very used to it - virginia creeper still on the wall at the moment but the arbour with the wisteria over it looks as if it's about to collapse

Extremely windy here. I've had to take some of the bird feeders down as they were blowing about too much. It didn't seem to bother the birds, but I didn't want them (the feeders) to fly off !
I put mixed bird seed on top of a water bin lid and the spuggies are flocking to it.

All quite down here!
I called my bro last night, he lives on a hill in the SW Wales, as I thought communications could be tricky over the weekend

Pretty bad in London, the current storm is ripping the roof off the O2 arena.

All calm in Correze, out for a walk this morning, cloud and occasional sunshine with a mild breeze. 12C at the moment.

Amber zone here in Norwich, gusting to ~130 kph. Should start to drop in about 3h. Orwell bridge is closed so Ipswich even more isolated than usual.

Regional weather warnings (shamelessly nicked from David Brookes):
South: Red Warning, army on standby, COBRA.

[Char]

Well if it's any consolation, 'tis extremely windy and wet where I am in la belle Creuse.

Orwell bridge is closed so Ipswich even more isolated than usual.

Nothing new there though - one day they may restart plans to build the Northern Relief Road - and they may take the A140 option - which will make travel for the footie derbys easier.

Hoping the fence posts hold now in BSE - apparently, the fence is rocking worse than an Elvis impersonator.

Here in the back of beyond it started out nice and sunny with a decent breeze so I opened up the car to dry it out. The windows had been wet and fogged from all the damp inside. Then this afternoon it peed down and I didn't notice. Very soggy car now. I'll have to use the dehumidifier again.
