Here comes Ophelia...

..ex-Hurricane Ophelia that is. +100MPH winds recorded in Southern Ireland already, it should hit us in Scotland just after dark  Really weird light this morning, almost twilight. Quite eerie. Wind's just starting to pick up now.

Yeah, even here in Warrington the sky had a kind of dark pinkish tinge to it... Just largely overcast now with the odd bit of sunshine poking through every now and then.
 
Hope all goes okay "up there" James

Do hurricanes regularly hit Scotland/Ireland?
 
Definitely the calm before the storm is quite eerie indeed......the power going out was one of our biggest issues during Irma and not a whole lot you can do. Stay safe James and board up the windows/hunker down if needed.

No, it's very unusual. It's *just* a storm now, not a hurricane. Heard of one fatality in Ireland so far, young woman killed in her car by a falling tree. Wind's really whipping up here now, I expect we'll lose power when it gets to it's strongest, the ancient overhead power lines around here can't cope with it.
 
Got the torches, phones and radio charged up, just going out now to put away anything that can blow around. Like, the goats....

Good to hear from you......(lol on the goats)....
If it's not too late, stock up on water and canned or dry foods (just in case the power goes out).

Thanks Mesh. Water supply isn't affected by power outtages, and it's ridiculously warm for the middle of October so it doesn't matter if the heating ain't working. Luckily we have a calor gas hob so we can still cook and boil water if need be.
 
Should all be gone over to the east by 5am tomorrow, so we're hunkering down.

Hurricanes are old hat in these parts. That doesn't mean I like them but I've just been in so many. Binge TV helps if you can't get out. I have netflix so it comes in handy till the power goes out. Just another stormy day so put on some stew and brew! make the most of it!!

I hear the latest version of NagBap© is designed to run on any power source including sweat and flatulence.

His upped his game now..he's sending me guitar parts that I can't actually play, then telling me to play them better...it's a cruelty I tells you 
 
...of course, it does help if one retunes one's bloody guitar after having it an open tuning for slide...
 
DOH!

Stay safe, we had the weird light down here in Devon and I had to do some makeshift repairs to the garden fence after the wind got at it. And we are a long way from the seriously affected area.

And the next one is BRIAN, its not a storm, just a very naughty boy.
 
Hopefully he will not cause too much disruption to my long train journey this weekend. Leaves on the line etc. or more to the point tree trunks on the line.

Oh aye, 'appen the' do maister Bapu.
 

 
Classic accompaniment to roast beef. Sometimes people make giant ones and put the whole meal inside, but I'm not a fan of that.
 
 
 
The trifle gets mixed up with the gravy and peas.
