    In D6W, my rose bush is dead. It was a lovely big one grown up about 12ft high along the kitchen wall. I just looked out a few minutes ago to see it sprawled across the patio. The wind snapped it. I'm not looking forward to walking the dogs either as there seem to be branches and trees coming down along the river path. I'll need a helmet.:(

    There is a risk of flooding apparently. At times like this, my canoe comes in handy. Just the wind and rain in my face, my portable radio in my pocket and gentily down the stream I go, life is but a dream.

    I don't know what all the fuss is about I mean it's raining pretty persistently yes, it's windy yes, but it's hardly "baton down the hatches and board up the windows"

    Honestly, the Irish ... what a tempest in a teapot

    OMG EVERYBODY STOP EVERYTHING!!! THEIR TRACKSUITS ARE GETTING WET!!!

    People made jokes like that the last time there was a Storm on the East Coast.

    Except there was so much rain a woman drowned in her apartment. It wasn't so funny then.

    [Edit: and a Garda drowned too]

    I live on a boat in Balbriggan harbour. The waves are coming over the wall by the barrel-load. Dash to the car in between waves ... didn't quite make it !

    You do realise Dublin is the most important part of Ireland don't you? It's the capital, it's where everything important happens and it's the only place in the country other countries care about. Hope this helps.
