The wind has really got up in the last hour, personally I'm not sure it's safe to go out at ll.

PS. You'll be glad to know I took the ladders off my van last night just in case.

just gone out to buy a diary. Not working because of the gales.
Just missed driving into this by about 2 minutes. I was getting into my car and 50 yards in front of me was this.

I worked today from 9am - 1pm. Did 1 job which was an inside, outside + conservatory roof job.

Glad I stopped after that one, coz the wind is really really bad around here now!

Hi
Very windy here in Birmingham. If i did go out i would have had to stand with my pole next to house i was doing and let wind pressure do its job.

So i designed my signwriting for my van instead.

Lets hope tomorrow brings the money in..... ;)
