I understood it was hitting the sw, all you are copping is a breeze, on the lifeboat this am on exercise the swell/waves were more than entertaining! seems some of the crew that were supposed to be learning had other commitments!

 

[AWheating]

Getting a bit blustery down here on the South coast.

 

[helpsy]

I reckon it has a lot to do with the lorry full of baked beans that were nicked from the back of it whilst the driver was asleep this week !

 

[helpsy]

We had horrendous rain here at 4 am this morning, I can't remember the last time it rained as hard.

 

[helpsy]

Just looked out the window...currently hammering it down. I knew it must be about time to wheel the BBQ into the garage and put the sun parasol in there as well!

 

[julesverne]

No wind here apart from my aristotle because of copious amount of tmoatoe juice and jalepeno's

 

[Killy Bing]

Back in '87 when it blew up, it took our roof off, and the outer skin peeled off the back of the house.

Had to live with the inlaws for 10 weeks. Wouldn't fancy that again.

 

[helpsy]

I have good word from high up in the Met Office that the south coast will be ok. His name is Michael Fish!

 

[P J F PLUMBING]

It's getting really bad here watching it on the CCTV

That was the weekend i did my unvented hw :lol:

The BBC have never been the same with a forecast since. They are always ott with the forecasts these days so they can't get accused of not warning us.
When it turns out to be a damp squib they say well better safe than sorry.

What is the world coming to. We have turned into a nation of ******* who can't deal with a good day to fly a kite on.
Everybody will be hiding under the kitchen table anyway if they have been listening to the news so the roads will be quieter than usual. Don't take the car, no unnecessary travel, stay at home what a load of nonsense.
You'd think we had a hurricane katrina on the way.

They risk assess everything in the same ott manner.

 

[Phil]

Yes ...we have become a nation of namby pamby H&S obsesssed big girls blouses, I fully expect to see nothing more than a twig in the road tomorrow with 6 ar$holes circled round it in suits/high vis vests and clipboards doing a full risk assessment and the twig coordand off with barriers. I will just drive straight through the barriers and get on with a days hard graft.

 

[SafeGasInstall]

OMG OMG flying leafes everywhere ....... Street sweepers will be busy

 

[stevetheplumber]
