Hi everyone.

Weather is wet and very windy.

Glad to be back with you all 

Hope everyone is well 

Yogi, I'm glad you are back, you've been missed

 

The weather is going to be wild, it's getting windier now but nothing like tomorrow.

 

Many years ago my mother told me something her mother had told her. A woman had been walking when the wind blew so hard that the woman was blown away and never seen again, she'd been blown into dust. I'm not totally convinced that that happened

 I think she may have been pulling your leg.

Good morning everyone

 

Strongest gust here so far today is 44.1 mph though expected to be higher with one site forecasting 65 mph this afternoon,

 

Squiggle, I hope the wind in your area doesn't cause damage . I don't know if there's any fruit in those hot cross buns which would made them odd. You can get chilli cheese scones and bread so the buns would appeal to those who like them.

 

Yogi. my grandmother could have thought that story was true. She really thought that electricity was dangerous - if gas could leak into the house, so could electricity, and that was more dangerous as you can't smell electricity.

 

I hope everyone has a good day and take care if you need to venture out

Back from church. Bits of debris on the roads but nothing of note. Unpleasant out there as you would expect. The majority of the regulars at church were there though some are too frail and sensible to risk going out in the wind.

Good afternoon everyone  

Just popping in to say ‘hi’ and let you know I will be back soon 

Very wet and windy here but not that bad currently 

 

El, glad you made it back from church safely 

Squiggle, good to know the weather isn’t to bad there 

 

Have great day, if that’s possible in this weather  

Moonie

Thanks Moonie. I'm glad your weather hasn't been too bad so far

 

My very local website shows the strongest gust so far is 54.1 mph which is the highest locally for some years. Many places would be getting much stronger gusts.

Good afternoon how is everyone? I hope the storm is being gentle on you all. It’s been wild here but I opted out of hiking all day in favour of a short local one, which was great because I got lucky with a break in the weather! now it’s raining heavily again and I’m home cosy I’m going to have an early bath and get my pj’s on 

 

El, I’ve reactivated my Netflix account, my mum wanted to share it with me so I might get my money’s worth now, she will certainly use it more than I will lol

Summer, I'm not surprised you opted for a short local one, it hasn't been a day for an all day hike

 

It's still windy here but it does seem less violent now. There's a bit of blue sky now but hefty showers are forecast.

 

The weather was bad enough for the Manchester City football match this afternoon to be posponed on safety grounds - that's very unusual.

 

It will be some time before I get to the end of OUAT. As I have got it on DVD I'm watching all the episodes. By the way, IMDB reviewers rated the 1st and 3rd episodes of this series as the lowest of the series.

Evening all 

Another wild day of heavy rain and strong winds. We did have two very brief spells of sunshine.

Thanks Ros, it’s good to be back 

Moonie, good to see you back 

Summer, I’m not surprised you opted for a shorter walk 

Aww, bless your grandmother, El. I guess electricity could seem scary.

Squiggle, I hope it isn’t too wild tonight where you are

*night owls* popping in to wish you all sweet dreams, I hope you’ve had a cosy evening  

Moonie, I hope you’re cosy and resting well 

 

El, thank you, those ratings will help me go power through should I find myself not enjoying the series. I’m going to keep an open mind!

Good morning all 

Weather is icy cold, with strong winds and sleet and snow showers.

El, those pics are stunning- hard to chose a favourite but I think the one with the night sky is mine.

Stay safe and warm everyone

Velvet, no obvious damage here.

 

Wind has picked up here and I've had to retrieve my recycling boxes as they were being blown away. They aren't that full and can wait until next week to be emptied.

 

Weather forecast here is very unsettled for days to come though tomorrow and Wednesday being better than the rest of the week. As for next weekend, watch out for Storm Dennis on Saturday night which could be another Storm Ciara (not yet named or certain but the current Met Office forecast isn't nice).

Re Endeavour. Although there will be another series in 2021, it's probable that it will be the final series. I think that, like the series which has just started, there will be 3 episodes.

 

There were 33 episodes of Inspector Morse and that would make 33 episodes of Endeavour.

Another re Endeavour. If you saw it and thought the man who played Ludo Talenti seemed familiar, that's played by Ryan Gage who was King Louis in the BBC series The Musketeers.
