I had a good day with the tiddlers but after a sleepless night (shooting pains in my hip), I am shattered and having an early night.
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Ros 
Hug for any night owls

Good morning everyone 
A bit brighter here than yesterday, though still breezy. Tomorrow's weather is forecast to be very wet and windy all day.
I hope all those in the Storm Ali area today aren't affected too much
Yogi, I hope your shooting pains subsided and you were able to get a better night's sleep
Squiggle, I hope you and your grandson have just about recovered from the bronchial coughing
Routine dental hygienist appointment followed by a checkup this morning.
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning all
Weather is grey and rainy but no wind atm.
Thanks Ros and El, my hip is a lot less painful and I slept much better last night.
Hope all goes well at the dentist, El.
Squiggle, Iâm glad you and your grandson are continuing to feel better.
Summer, I hope your washing didnât blow away yesterday
Moonie, we miss you, hope you are okay.
Velvet, I donât know why youâve gone but please come back to us.
Good morning everyone, very windy again. I'm glad you slept better last night Yogi and that your hip feels less painful today. I hope all is routine at the dentist EL.
Enjoy your day everyone

Take extra care if you have to go out between now and Monday due to the bad weather
Thanks El
Itâs blowing an absolute gale here
Itâs the same up here 
El Loro posted:I hope no-one here has been caught up in 100 mph winds from Storm Ali
Forecast to get to a mere 48 mph here tomorrow evening.
It has calmed down somewhat, up here

aw Moonie I hope you soon feel better, whatâs wrong with your eye?
Yogi I hope you have been in less pain today
squiggle Iâm pleased youâre on the mend, I donât like to think of you being unwell
el, I really wonder at garages these days! My car needs looking at, but it could be a simple fuse. I hate dealing with car stuff, I just donât know who to trust.
itâs been wild here today, I had to rescue the neighbours fairy lights and the poor lass has lost a roof tile too 
Hope you all sleep well tonight, Iâm going to Churchill soon
Sorry I missed you, Summer
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Moonie, Summer, Ros and Velvet

I think I saw only one of these in the garden was the same gorgeous colour-wondered what it was
night yogi and summer
Good morning everyone
Raining here, looks as if it will ease for a time but return with windy conditions this evening.
Summer, as you say, it's trying to find a car repair place you can trust
Ros, if you remember what that blue butterfly looked like you might be able to identify which type via this link
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning all
Weather is sunny, with a strong breeze.
El and Summer, you are absolutely right about it being difficult to find a reliable and trustworthy garage.
Youngest son is getting a parcel delivered to ours this morning. As soon as it arrives, Iâm off to Morrisons.
Have a good day, everyone

Hi Sweet

Its healing but it will take a little time by the looks of it

I missed this yesterday
I hope you are feeling much better today Yogi
Glad you had a good time with the little ones too ð
Good morning everyone, a very wet morning here and I think the rain is due to last all over the weekend. I wish you better Moonie, that sounds quite nasty
Enjoy your day everyone
Moonie, I'm not suprised that your eye was so sore, and I'm glad that it's healing
Squiggle, the weather here is nuch the same as yours. The worst here is this evening, tomorrow and the first part of Saturday seems not to bad, then the second part of Saturday and Sunday is more wet and windy weather though hopefully not as bad as this evening, From Monday it looks a lot more settled next week.
Considering that yesterday's storm was Ali, tonight's storm is Bronagh and it's quite possible that Saturday/Sunday's storm (not yet certain) could be Callum, the Met Office names for the 18/19 season could be exhausted before the end of the season next spring time
And in the last half hour I've been doing some emergency cutting back of the forsythia bush in the back which is near the lounge patio doors. It's a large tall bush and the branches were brushing against the windows. I think it must have grown over the last month to account for that. Considering that it's expected to be very windy tonight, if I left it, there could be some damage or a risk that branches would break off in the wind. One green wheelie filled in that time.
Moonie, unfortunately I do have to go out to see a client (not that far, about a 10 minute drive) at 6. I want to keep it as short as possible as the rain will set in some time between 6.30 and 7 and it will be dark by shortly after 7 - I don't really want to be driving in the dark in the pouring rain with wind speed over 40 mph.
