    What's the civic reception about ? Are you able to take a guest with you , who could perhaps drive .

    As everyone has said what's done is done.

    Hope you have been ok in the wind and rain today x

    Celebrating volunteering.
    I have declined the invitation.
    No guests were allowed :(

    It certainly was very windy & very very wet.

    Did manage to get to the library & pick up my books so that was good.
    So if I dont get out over the weekend all will be well :)

    No point in going then if you don't know anyone . A guest would at least been someone to speak to. Glad to hear you got to the library. I have put my plant pots near my door , we have canopies and bin sheds outside so at least they don't blow over.

    Has been very windy here too - a tree blew over in the school grounds over the path the parents bring the kiddy winks - thankfully all the children were safely in school at the time and council cleared it before the end of the day. Dh boss had the windows blown out of his house -he is quite high on an exposed hill -again luckily no one was around to be hurt by the debris...

    Stay safe and warm this weekend Benaie xx
