Can't wait, just a shame I'm back on Christmas Eve.

Hmmm, pretty sure I could manage that myself.

can't see my missus being overly excited by the thought though although she has managed the Grand Canyon so anything's possible.

anyway it took me a few seconds to get my head around your cat stuck in the culvert post before I realised that it wasn't the worlds biggest moggy that needed three tractors.

Nice

[Badgers01]

Would have thought the rain might have warranted an Amber warning from Met. O? Not in Portinscale today but family say it’s pretty horrendous day and not improving yet...

[Chris.R]

I thought a train was coming through the window before but it was the outflow boundary of a squall. Watching the pressure to see if that was a cold front.

[carl1980]

Been watching the squall on the radar,looks very active,pouring here just ahead of it should be here soon

[Thunder Snow]

pouring down still wish this front will get a move on

[carl1980]

Just passed through very heavy rain,gusty winds calmed down now temp falling

[itsnowjoke]

Chucking it down here glad I'm on a hill bottom of one but still a hill

[itsnowjoke]

Could get flooding being at the bottom not thinking that through

[itsnowjoke]

Torrential rain now

[itsnowjoke]

Hammering on windows

[Thunder Snow]

Been bad here , assisted with bogged down cat stuck in culvert  from my old company, took  three tractors to remove  it from its situation, I was caked head to foot,and still hammering it down .

Had to re read that to get the gist, I thought "Christ, 3 tractors, that's some moggy!" It's been a long day!

Me too!

50mph gusts here the past few hours, a few tree's down locally but not much traffic on the roads with the rain and gales that were forecast. Got interrupted a few times as I was playing GTAV with headphones on and occasionally there'd be the stronger gusts hitting the window and making a racket.

Feels colder today. I woke up early in the morning by hailstones and I went to sleep again.
