    Anyone see UL? The main entrance was closed today which caused mayhem over there.

    Its still closed now forcing all traffic to go through the back entrance

    A woman from my class spent 45 minutes in a taxi just trying to get out of UL car-park this evening. She eventually sent a text to one of the others saying she wouldn't be in at all this evening.

    It must have been very bad out there to knock down one of the trees at the front of UL, those things are huge! :eek:

    The wind knocked the canvas cover off my motorbike outside my flat and between 10:00 am and 10:25am I was literally chasing the cover about the car park in front of my flat in my spandex underpants and t-shirt in full view of the Lithuanians across the road from me who all had a traumatized look on their faces for the rest of the day.

    Did the wind huff and puff and blow your garage down?

    There are plenty of big trees flanking the road too :p

    It'd take an actual hurricane to take down the flag poles...

    I was expecting some mega storm, but only found it extra windy when
    cycling home from work. Did not realize it caused a bit of havoc and knocked
    some trees.
