hi bazzyboots tree uprooted on green opposite - cast iron top off the chimera blew across the garden - the old doors from upstairs which OH is waiting to take to the local skip(council won't collect them even when paying them )  fell over across the back garden  - terrible day - the wind has just died down but still raining  feel battered myself

big one just the usual college and working and still here  husband is ok...changed his job...doing delivery for pizza place...so he doesn't have so much travel every day and he says it's less stressful!!

Awww ....well as long as he's happy , that's all that matters 

yeah it was worse here in the country areas fallen trees and power outages but we weren't too bad in the city apart from bins falling over...heard flooding in the south of ireland where husband is from

Yes, I think they said some places ...presumably on the west coast had winds of over a hundred mph over there 

he was doing really well he seems to have a knack for that kind of job but to be honest he does well at anything as a job...just doesn't seem to be any decent contracted jobs here

It was our bin day , loads went flying ...including ours .....and goodness knows what it's going to cost to get roof sorted  

he is happier although if i'd told him to stay at that other job i know he would have but have to be supportive the manager told him that it is kinda self employed but that he said he didn't tell him that...i don't really get it

 I'm guessing it's a sort of contracted self employment ....does he have to sort out his own NI and tax ?

he gets paid weekly through the books so the tax and NI would be sorted...it's a low hourly paid and the rest is made up on how many deliveries and tips
