    I've just posted a cute photo from ...... ummmm ..... somewhere. :whistle:

    Oh, what a cute dog, I wish I had one like that. I could really love a dog like that one . :). (Less if it knocked lampshades crooked though)


    Caption:

    But why would I sit on the floor?

    Pastures, please don't worry about the fences. It isn't safe to go out and look at night in a storm. If they come down, they can wait until morning.
    I wasn't going to go out ... I might have opened the patio door 2" and taken a photo while remaining inside :)

    I just hate not knowing what's happening out there as I've got no bright/outside lights whatsoever. Imagining is worse than seeing/watching.

    Fence is out the back; I go out the front to peek as there's a streetlight there so I can see if my car's been crushed by the big tree at the corner of the driveway ....

    What happens if a trial is adjourned to your maternity leave?

    Trains on the Chiltern line will be much cheaper but go from Marylebone rather than Euston. Also, this week some train lines withdrew all restrictions for all tickets due to the whether. If they do the same next week you could book the cheapest ticket for an unpopular train and travel at any time. Follow their twitter feeds.

    I was going to suggest that as a cheaper option. :(

    Moor Street Station is stunning. A pleasure to arrive at.

    I'm sure it's a business expense anyway (goes off to but some shares in virgin trains...)

    Agreed.

    You are actually in a 'lucky position' as a renter nights like these ... Its kinda not your problem. You've not kept things in disrepair or failed to inform them of anything, so if it blows away tell the agents in the morning. :)
    It is my problem if there are two whole fence panels being lobbed relentlessly round at 15'x30' garden and my patio windows are one end of that!

    Yes, but the chances of much damage are really pretty slight. If they are standard panel fences they are pretty flimsy. Our glas doors (old cheap ones) take big dog hurling herself at them :o.


    One day they won't of course. :)


    As a tenant if there is damage at least you know someone else has to fix it and promptly.

    On the news some old guy got killed by tree while checking out his garden today. Poor sod...
