    The silence is breathtaking.

    Totally, awesomely quiet. Even the rain has stopped.

    Chill and still.

    A day to set all back in order and prepare for the next days of gales

    Just back from beautiful coastal walk + can't believe how mild it was.

    A mixed bag here in NCD.

    Very windy all morning, but changes between dull + lashing rain one minute, then sunshine the next.

    Glad I got the walk in yesterday!

    Won't be same trick or treat this year but we will have a walk around to see some of decorations in houses then back home for treasure hunt in house.

    Should be some decent breaks in the cloud early in the night to view the full halloween Moon. First time a full moon has fallen on Halloween itself since 1974.

    Also as a matter of interest it is a blue moon because it is the second full moon this calendar month.

    It has thankfully quietened the last while. Hopefully a calmer evening and night ahead as we enter November and winter. May the transition be smooth and hopeful . It was always seen as an auspicious and significant time,, hence all Hallows Eve today, then All Saints tomorrow then All Souls .

    This is the sheltered bay behind my home. Usually millpond calm with just a gentle, soothing tidal flow and music...

    With these gales! I had never seen it like this before... Stood there rapt and it was worth getting drenched .

    Hard, loud heavy rain here too. Looks as if set in for the day. Quieter windwise though.
