Well I thought I'd posted that it was a glorious morning, earlier, and it was, but got rained off about two and my internet was obviously playing up again...

Absolutely ghastly here today - no doubt it will cheer up in time for me to get back to work on Wednesday.. 
Moved to Portugal - ain't going back!

Being a bit further South that half an hour's snow was just sleet here. A similar day will be good enough... have a skip coming for a site tidying party this morning...

The skip arrived just after 8:00 and despite threatening to rain several times I have just come in, bad light stops play!

Here we go again, wheelie bins collecting at the bottom of the close and it has not reached full strength yet.

That's only 60mph.   

Don't mean to sound unsympathetic but we have that speed forecast till 10am tomorrow.   

Parts of the UK have it far worse with floods, uprooted trees, damage to buildings including a windmill that's lost its hat and sails and people trapped in cars under fallen trees.

Belgians have far greater speeds and have been advised not to go outdoors or travel unless absolutely necessary.  Northern France is also living in "interesting times" today and tomorrow.

Ciara was kind enough to pop by and help me by putting a hedgehog highway in my fence, though I'm not sure she's got the proportions right...

I have just had a message to tell me my polytunnel has been wrecked. I'll have to get up there but it is hissing down this afternoon. It is not hindering anybodys plot so no rush.

Ciara is causing havoc well into mainland Europe now and weather forecasters seem to think there will be 2 or 3 more such storms over the next couple of weeks.

Been out all day and dark when I got in so have to hope our polytunnel is OK. 

Good luck with all your PTs, greenhouses and cold frames and fences..

Calm and clear here this morning, snow virtually gone, should get time to tidy things up. If they are promising us three or more such storms I'd expect idyllic weather for the rest of the month!

Wet and windy today but a tornado ripped through the town last night causing quite a bit of damage to properties. All safe in our little close, and I don't have a poly to worry about.
