In my neck of the woods we have torrential rain and thunder and lightning at the moment. Nothing like the issues in Ireland and Scotland through.

Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

Stonehaven, at the very northern tip of the red warning area is in the process of having flood defences built for the river leading into the sea. I hope they don't regret them being started earlier. Even on a 'normal' rough day, the sea can come well over the seawall. I imaginer things are pretty unpleasant right now, a far cry from when I was there in late spring when the sun was out in force...

Same here. I was avoiding being given a shower on my walk toady. Not unusual for the road in some places to be flooded, covered in sea weed, and even pebbles. 

"Luckily" in Dublin, we only got the rain. Nowhere as near as bad as Cork.

I thought it was mainly in the North, the worst of it, surprised it was better fort you in Dublin and worse in Cork. 

Nessie was spotted in the loch lifting up a sign: "Build me an ark" !

South-West winds usually mean we get away with most of the rain, what's left, we send over to you - no extra charge, :)

Those that pick up on typos get cat points removed. Just so you know.

Yes, well given the extreme intellect of our feline masters and the fact that they are so advanced that they formed the Feline Galactic Council and rule the entire galaxy, I don't think they would be too interested in replacing the dodgy spell check software we use. They have far more important things to handle. Like dealing with the evil canine empire known as HOUND!  Which stands for... Hounds Of the Undefeated Ninja Dogginess.
