ROFL!      Just Tubed him and listened to two intro's I switched it off! I hate that kinda music! 

Apparently a woman lost her hair weave during the concert and he has just tweeted that it was a great gig in Nottingham 

Hoping we have all our battens well and truly hatched we are due the general 50 mph and 80 gusts. Keep safe all xx

Good luck everybody!

Wind is starting to get stronger here and it's very dark 

iv just done the school run and had to walk part of it on watnall road jue

bins everywhere and the pushchair pulling me along faster then i wanted to

I'm in Glasgow they are closing the schools and colleges due to gale force winds today,possible structure damage .The busses are going off the road by 12.00 noon.The winds will be at their worst between 12 noon and 5.00pm.It's wild just now possible 90mph gales later..

I've just heard something come off the roof, i haven't dared too have a look yet 

 

Stay safe Katty 

Oh

My

God

 

I've never seen anything like this.. I really don't want to go outside......

what's happening? 

Oh No hope your okstay in if you can

Very windy here, I'm in the yellow/orange bit too. Stay safe everyone, don't go out unless you have to!

thanks Tina, aims... it got really dark and just crazy driving rain (sideways!)    You really couldn't see to the other side of the road.    I'm at work, but luckily finishing at two today so i'll be driving in the daylight.     cosy  by the fire afternoon coming up     Having said all that it's sunny now..

OMG at least you got there safe........roll on 2oclock

Just a quick visit to say I hope all our Scottish and northern FMs stay safe in the awful weather It is very windy here in Cheshire , but no way near as bad as further north . Take care everyone

I have to leave soon ,not looking forward to venturing out in this wind.

It was awful here (Northern Ireland) this morning when i got the kids up for school, I really didn't want to send them out in that weather but it's not fair to keep them off either. I'm dreading the school run, I've just curled my hair but I think it'll have to get tied up tight unless I'm going for a lovely windswept look

 

Oh an the rain has been away all morning but I bet as soon as I walk out the door to walk to the school it'll bucket down

All our schools are closed today,we are in the Red Zone so it's safer to keep the kids at home .We have 80+ mph winds.

That looks like a very happy orange Ghost to me

Erin that sounds scary that they have even closed the schools!!

Hope you trip home is ok  we've got the rain as well now 

High all. Well, I'm home again, Was at work for a few hours, but hubby came and dragged me home u10:45. I nearly got blown over in the 100 yards between the hospital entrance and the pick-up point. Would have been blown back down the front steps if he hadn't been there to hang-on to.

Even while waiting for the bus at 8 this morning it was almost 'hang-onto-a-lamppost' strength of wind.

at least your home safe Fluffy its calmed down abit here in nottingham but its almost dark feels odd because my 5 year old is still at school

I've just seen this on the BBC website:

 

The Ski area at Aonach Mor, just outside Fort William in the Highlands has reported a wind gust of 130mph (209kph).

Thanks Tina. Yeah, it always seems a bit funny when the light levels don't match the time of day or circumstances.

 

Hope your kiddie is ok.

In the red here! It's mental - a shed roof flew by over our big pear tree about an hour ago, me and the cat are hunkering down! 

 time too batten down the hatches, stay safe 

Poor Milo got lifted off his ickle legs at one stage in the garden  he soon came back in and huddled under his blankie 

 

My next door neighbour has only half a fence as the rest got blown down - I don't know how mine is still standing 

Awww poor Milo. Its blowing a gale here too - the windows are rattling. A storm is quite nice when you're indoors.

I love sitting indoors by a warm fire eating toast and supping tea when it's cold and blowy outside and I've got my furry body warmer (Milo) to keep me warm   even better if there's a good old b/w movie on telly or atm a Christmas movie 

Me too Pengy . This is such an old decrepit building that the doors and windows rattle like mad so you get the full storm experience - feels so much cosier inside though..

Massive downpour here now 

eeeeh... it's not nice out there... home safe though, managed to stay pretty much on my side of the road too.... . can't hear the wind right now - got a couple of burly carpet cleaners doing their thang on my floor coverings so I'm being deafened by them atm.

 

hope everyone and their property is ok

wind is picking up and it's started to rain, but i'm on the very edge of the yellow bit, so it shouldn't be too bad,  i hope not because the daughter has to walk alongside the edge of a field (very open) and across a dyke (although it is a concrete bridge)

it's heading east still kaffy, take good care! x

Making home made stew for tea tonight,  the only thing too have in this weather 

I'm going nowhere now until the morning, slinks... you at home?    That photo's amazing - but scary.

Yep, I'm at home, camping out in the back room, cause the front windows are rattling so hard ! Had to lock the storm door, the two doors blew open earlier . Bit spooked  

  Stay cosy and stay here for company.   I wish these bloomin' carpet cleaners would finish and be gone... I'm freezing my ass off in the kitchen keeping out the way.
