Handling the High Winds

Today, I went to town. I handled the high winds like a Trooper. By God's grace, there were no fallen trees on the roads. Though, I had to make a Chap in a White Merc reverse for me, after I hadn't enough room pulling over; when reversing for him. This was in a steep, and narrow, hill road. Went there to avoid the town; when getting to an Egg Vending Machine, and the Stove Place; to buy a new glove, for my woodburner.

Then, I visited my Artist friend. His sister and him wanted to go to the new Lidl, in town, for groceries. First I had to drive Miss Daisy to the Tesco, to get cash, and a few other things. The Lidl was within walking distance.

After waiting in my car, trying to sort out my friend's Health Trust online ID - his mobile data was on, but the 2fa email wasn't sent - I then went out to see if my mate was okay. No sign of him, in the shop, and I bought wash basins for storage. Then, outside, I saw my friend effing and blinding. He bought a clothes horse which was set to poleaxe him, blowing out of his trolley. In the end, I took it, putting it in the back seat. That was a handling, as I couldn't dismantle the back seats as his sister came with us.

Eventually, I got to visit a couple I visit most Monday afternoons. Then, I collected the past weeknd's pamphlet in a local Chapel and went home. By God's grace, my bins never blew down. However, they're now in the shed; as was a clothes horse lying outside. My mop and bucket, which my cleaner always puts outside, is in the house. Everything sorted.

All I need to do, now, is watch Bond Movies; like Alan Partirdge. Smiley

  • We were lucky we escaped the worst of it, but we've quie a bit of very welcome rain, looking outside now though you'd never know it had happened.

    We're quite vulnerable to power cuts from storms, so we always have candles and batteries, we have a gas hob too so we can always have something hot to eat and drink, we have a gas fire too which is only ever used when we have power cuts.
