Rough out there. Lost my favourite cap tonight. Didn't just knock it off but took it out clear over the hedge.:D As an old man near me used to say, 'Tis so rough it would blow the horns off the cattle'.

the wind is fairly rough here this evening. i had to spend 2 hrs strapping down a hayshed roof that had ripped all the nails out of the bottom of the round part of a hayshed where it runs into the lean too. A bag of tec screws, a flashlamp, srew gun and a rip of ratchet straps and i think it should hold untill tomorrow.

Just had a hail shower here, thought the roof was going to come in. The youngest lad ran out of his room in terror such was the noise. Looks like three in the bed tonite!!!!!

Gonna be fun i reckon. May tie down the cattle in the shed

Conmaicne Mara

It's shocking out, driving rain, lots of wind, not awful cold but the rest is making up for it. We're paying now for the spell of fine settled weather earlier on.

It's here now. Blowing a bit since 12 but gone savage since 5 this evening. Rain coming in horizontal. Make you nostalgic for the grand soft evening we had on Tues.:eek:

There was a lull here for a short while earlier, but it's back blowing again, no rain just showers at the moment.

Fairly wet and windy here. Need a new water proof jacket.... Zip gone on the old one and its also no longer water proof! Forecast not looking good up to Christmas Eve.
