About the only job I won't do on my house is the roof. Grrrr! One of those is a new slate as well by the look of it!

Was a slate down the side of my house today too.

But it was the neighbours!

I have a large tree down in my back garden, a bit of lead flashing off some part of my roof, and a bunch of fence panels down.

I'll put a pic of the tree up later on when I get back from the boatyard, god knows what damage I'll find there.

It was absolute carnage in the midlands. I have a 80 mile round trip to work usually but on the way home I had to leave the motorway 20 miles too early. Massive congestion because of an accident at my usual exit junction. (Most motorways were close one or both ways).

So I decide to do the last 20 miles on a mixture of country and A roads. Nearly have a head on collision when someone swerves out of the way of a falling tree.

I then proceed to spend a further hour sitting in mobile car parks and avoiding a series of random car crashes.

Muchos fun.

I'll be working from home today :)

Trees on the tracks all over on the rails in london.

It was a fight just to get on to the train when it did turn.

Bah....nothing in finland...

No trees, no tiles, no crashes, no nothing. Well, plenty of nothing actually.

Waterlevel rose (Uuuuuuu uuuuUUUh!*que monty python dude*) and that's it.

BAH!

Warning. Do not cycle on your usual paths the day after very high winds.

There were at least 30 trees I counted that had been pushed over. Many of them blocking the way completely, leaving me to crawl between the broken branches and nettles, and sharp thorny bracken.

My legs are cut to ribbons, and my headphones were ripped out of my ears, now one side doesn't work :(

Bastard wind.

duh bike noob :) it's going to be at least a week before I am back in the woods. In fact, it was on the national news that the public is warned off the woodland paths while the woodsmen take the time to clear up and make it safe again.

We had no electricty in my town for 24 hours-ish, and there's a TV Aeriel on my front lawn. Last night was the coldest nights sleep I ever had.

Still its all back on now and I have cable, so I can still watch the match tomorrow. Winn0r!
