  • I think we have the beginnings of the weather, it's just started battering rain on the window and it's bucketing down and the wind has picked up considerably in the last few minutes, in for interesting times we are, yes?

    You need to check your council website to see if they've put any information on about refuse collections. All collections in this area of Kent have been cancelled for tomorrow.

    Temperature has just dropped dramatically here.

    It's our bin day tomorrow, rubbish bin, recycling bin (both wheelies) and food waste bin (like a hamper). Half the neighbours have wheeled them out! I bet they will be blowing around the street at night and smashing into the cars. Mines on the drive but DH van is on street. Are people daft?

    Short answer - YES

    Where you located Mrs LurcherWalker?

    its still raining and no wind here in the Mid Valleys of S E Wales
  • Rainy in milton keynes. Have popped myself to bed but I expect it will all wake me up!
  • After being very windy earlier it was very calm and quiet here for a while so I just thought I would take the terrier for a quick walk around the block. :o Surprisingly the streets are deserted.:D

    It is drizzling and the wind is picking up a bit but it feels quite warm. Strange.
  • Unusual here in Essex too. Been sunny but windy for most of the day but now it appears as though there is n wind at all...for now.

    Watching the news. Very sad news that a 14 year old boy has been swept into the sea off Newhaven Beach. He has been missing now for 4 hours.
