omg dont let Brogdale hear you say that!
Brogdale is Sheppey. I'd imagine low flying cabbages are more of a concern over that way.

This storm just got properly serious. All our local takeaways seem to be shut according to Uber Eats. I didn't vote for Brexit just to have this happen. I mean, I didn't vote for Brexit at all, but that's not the point here. The takeaways are shut people! The takeaways! Shut! People! Takeaways!
I'll be writing a strongly worded letter to the Pope, and sending the Queen the bill.

All the pics I'm seeing are of flying trampolines with the netting still up. I think the met office needs to work out a separate trampoline warning, it's not a niche concern.

I’ve got Skol but I’m not a Scholar
Barely anything of note round here yet Bristol was supposed to be right in the middle of the red bit. Just walked up to school, plenty of twigs and a few minor branches scattered round the site, there’s been worse storms for debris just this winter (suspect a lot of the loose stuff was already down).
On the way up there I saw the box bit for a shop canopy had come down, the top of a Victorian style lamp was sat on the pavement (not smashed, just like it had been placed there) and a dead blackbird was being eaten by a magpie on one of the shopping streets. That and a few toppled/askew wheelie bins, but the bin men often leave them like that anyway so it looks no different. Bit boring.

We have an ice warning, but it felt like spring out there today- I walked miles! There must be some ice-god descending on us in a few hours as it will be a hell of an escalation.

How's this for weapons grade stupidity?

Just saw a squirell get blown out of one of our trees. He/she was hanging on magnificently with their tail but the wind was too much; they hit the grass about ten feet away and then scampered off.
(I don't know if they were on crack or not at the time.)

Here's another. WTF is wrong with these people? How did so many folk end up taking such a blasé attitude to their lives and those of others?

In My Defence I was left Unsupervised
There has been an almighty thud from outside so have been outside to investigate, nothing of mine has blown over that I can see. It's not too bad in the East Mids yet there's been light rain almost all the entire day and the wind is making the windows rattle occasionally but that it's it.

well the silly carpetbagging cunt doesn't have a by-election to parachute into...if only he did take to a parachute in this weather. His Blitz spirit in that case might just be the end of the "Workers Party of Great Britain"

Its bad, really bad out there.
if you're looking for a silver lining though the storm caused a complete power outage at my company's head office and factories. Everyone got the afternoon off and have been in the pub since midday. Its like a snow day.
Every cloud eh?*
*Thinking about it maybe not the best choice of phrase.
