    I think you could be right. Which makes it all the more stupid that they cancel all the bastard trains the night before!
  • They don't have to pay compo for canx in advance

    And god forbid they may get wet leaves on the line

    A small section of scaffolding has blown over on Bellegrove Road Welling, next to the Avenida and I have seen a couple of for sale signs travelling along the road at high speed!

    Always good to wake up in a hurricane, open the curtains and see your wife walking up and down the road picking up recycling. Nutter

    I've just done the same.
    Drew the line at collecting a neighbours strongbow cans however!
    Dec just shouted from bed without even opening his eyes 'hope you don't blow away'
    If I had, I wouldn't have been able to rely on him to help!

    Lol,

    Had power cut, and wife was desperately trying to get the kids back to sleep thinking it was 4.15 and not 6.50.

    Neighbours tree has blown down and is hanging over the party wall in Charlton. Think I will have to remove it as I have all the branches and he just has the trunk. Looking forward to walking the dog around Maryon Wilson Park once it calms down a bit.

    Big mature tree come down in Catford near the one way system
  • you must watch sky news, a group of crazy old folk down by the sea in Brighton having a paddle for the pics in the newspapers , which was pretty irresponsible when a wave knocks them over and the camera man, all of the panicking not to get swept out to sea and the pap fella fuming and wallowing in the surf,

    JT do your stuff and find the gif

    Sky news are reporting that a bird's nest has been blown out of a tree in Wimbledon.

    It wont have to cock its leg very high. have a look at the tree spanning Charlton Road (Bottom of Cemetery Lane).
