I should be off to Wales later today, all being well. I shall see if there's much weather damage. I keep an eye on weather stations near my place via weathercloud (https://app.weathercloud.net/map the URL dumps you somewhere in north Africa but scroll north to the British Isles) and I can't see that anything out of the ordinary has happened. Even the gusts have only been 11 m/s (or about 25 mph). Interestingly enough, if you look at weather stations on the south coast, many of them also don't show anything special - wind gust peaks of about 16-18 m/s seem fairly typical.

I don't bother with the news any more as a source of information. It's OK as a sort of horror pantomime, but to keep an eye on what's going on I'd much rather find some actual data.
 
Went sainsberrys last night. Shreddies 4.5 sovs. 4 wiv a nectar card but still charging full price so eye teld em and gottid me arf sov back. Tis the principle. Gottid meself a stake. Stake night tonight.

We has had lots of rain but nowt heavy. Last night eye found 5 slugs in me hedgehog food dish so eye cleaned em oot. Orrible fings.
 
Black pudding is good if you like eating blood, as that's what it was traditionally made of. So protein and iron are well catered for. If they've managed to reduce the fat content to 2.5% I wonder what they make the white bits out of?

Just had a look. Weirdest social network out! but pretty cool. Seems I'd have to "sign up" to get more stuff. Oops, I get it "free" for a while then have to pay.
So I'm out.
Guess you can still see some stuff for free though.
 
Dry and sunny here.
W off to the dentists for a check-up.
shopping arriving any minute, then me off out to get first eyetest in 5 years at same time as W will be off to see her new doc about her chronic sinusitis. Hope she has better luck with this new bunch.
Then off to view the auction.
So very little DIY today, though I'l prolly find time to finish off putting the boiler cupboard door up.
hope all are well and having a good Fridi!!
:):):)
