The Outlaws live in Crewe, and Crewe railway station is closed as some roofing material has caught fire on the overhead wires...
The roof on the post office there has been ripped off too.

100 mph winds expected

Red warning for NI, house 2 doors up has scaffolding outside so I moved the Terrano down the street in case it comes down!

Windows haven't been shaking so it's not too bad so far.

I wanted some snow. Not one sodding flake!

well ive now got a few potted plants in my garden I didn't know I had

Sweety · 12-02-2014, 22:09

Far to much rain here & the wind has picked right up would have normally parked the motor on the outer drive in winds like this but it'll get hit by the wheelie bins that are drag racing down the street

so will just have to hope our dodgy roof don't start spitting tiles off or they'll land on top of the truck

I live in Liversedge and can confirm its very windy, its re organised the garden for us tonight!! The stove is burning well though just a little too well

exosteve · 12-02-2014, 22:29

most people from a few doors downwards have no power

we have but are self sufficient without electric and gas

had me coal fire lit all day. got loads of candles and a 12v telly if needed.

apart from that its time to see how good my house insurance is as ive lost at least 4 ridge tiles

exosteve · 12-02-2014, 22:30
