Malt 379 Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Bit breezy and wet here but it was windier yesterday afternoon if anything.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bosun11 537 Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 I think the weather people might have overreacted in their predictions so they didn't look as stupid as 1987. No rain at all here and just the odd puff of wind. some of the pictures there showing on the BBC news this morning are from other storms as they showed them yesterday before the storm was here Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mister Gain 1,764 Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Been quite a few trees down on the railways in the south.. although my fence didn't actually fall down, it's over enough that it needs a lot of work doing to put it right... not good for an old fat bloke only got a 1ft ledge to stand on to do it, one slip and I'm in the pond Quote Link to post Share on other sites
