I do hope that there isn't too much damage to your garden @gennepher.

Thank you @Krystyna23040

But there's going to be problems with me and Mr insensitive neighbour over the fencing because he has fixed it to my breeze block wall and it's taken my breeze block wall down.
I have just been out there before he discovers this (but I imagine he would have heard it in the night), and I have taken photographs (with my flash) of all the fixings where he's attached his fencing on his side to my breeze block wall which he had no right to do so and he never asked permission... His fencing attached by fittings to my breeze block wall is what brought it down and that's why I've just taken loads and loads of photos.

I am sure I said when that fencing went up, that it would come down in a high wind. I was unaware at the time that the fencing was attached to my breeze block wall, and that was the only thing holding this heavy fencing up. Stupid stupid man.

He can pay for my wall as well because, I am not paying one penny towards that wall.

6.3 this morning.
Last day of term today. Looking forward to the lovely long break.

Just watching the news before setting off to Norwich. The conditions look horrendous in Wales. Really scary.

Hello from Montreal. Waking BG is 5.3 mmol/L Sat. Dec 7.
Lost 2 more kg since last weigh-in so I've lost 38kg total since I started all this since before the Pandemic. (5.9 stone, I think that is.)

Take care on the roads @Krystyna23040
I have absolutely no idea of the wind and rain conditions your way, but it is not fit here for beast or man.

I just tried to go out to my back garden. I wanted to see what the damage was. But I needed a hard hat and wellies. I have a paddling pool/moat round my bungalow. I was driven back in. I wanted to see if the potting shed was okay or if it needs it tarpaulin over some of it... I have no idea how it is faring in this wind.... I have a lot of books in there....

EDIT...According to the Windy App, this wind, especially the gusts are not going to die down until tomorrow...

Morning all from a wet and windy L.A. which is not good but far better than many. Quick thank you for sharing the video and creative/photo to @gennepher and big hug for the impact of Darragh and Mr Insensitive. Conditions here are like a down sized Cyclone challenge from I'm a Celeb though no one has ventured outside yet. The dogs were very wary of having their morning comfort break. I'll leave the attached with you to mull over, no knee jerk mentions of handcarts to Hades please: full piece here for keenies. POTUS elect and oppositional defiance disorder struck a chord. Now, even though I'm not a celebrity, I'm getting myself out of here. Take carxe everyone.

We are under siege here @gennepher, the local shops haven't opened.
my moat has refilled, my sheds are rattling. My windows are shaking like me.
it is horrendous, no protection on the coast, just wild and very wet.
My garden is a bit of a mess from foliage again.
plants are taking it well (ish)

A very surprising 6.3.
As I'm full of snot, coughing, a bad head cold, sore throat etc, shaking, arthritis playing up. I was expecting my FBG to be a lot higher. Mind you, I'm fasting today and never ate much yesterday either.
Mrs L told me to rest up and take it easy!
Mrs L has no idea.
But I'm trying to.
Paracetamol is helping, I think.
Have gone through a roll of kitchen roll already.
I'm not well.
My calves hurt.
My body is shaking.
If I can't moan here, where can I?

Hope you lot feel better than I do, it won't be difficult.
Best wishes.

You are more important than your house, you should not go out at all, it is not worth it.
And the latest from the local weather station is this is not gonna change till tomorrow morning (ish)
I'm worried about my back fence as it is westward facing.
What a lovely view you must have of this area. There is reverse of that view for certain places around here, especially of Snowdonia.
it is beautiful in good weather.
but in this, no thanks.
at least the electricity is still on. Hopefully, I've got my chrimbo lights on now.
keep safe.

Good afternoon all. I had a fasting BG of 5.8 this morning after a 5.3 reading at bedtime last night.

@equipoise I was just about to start a new thread with a very similar title but glad you beat me to it.

No @Lamont D it is not worth it to go outside in this...

The power started flickering on and off so I've just made two flasks of tea, one flask of water and that should do me til morning.

Night night from me...
