I thought we'd had Doris. What a night, what an MMF that was Shag.

Not good, lets hope it calms down soon, we might get the rain later.

Yup. Drove from my place in Priesthill with the sun shining to work in Paisley into a blizzard lol! My brother came down here from Pollock with his kids last week and my niece said it was warmer up there.

Can't stand this new advent of naming UK storms. The weather systems we get over here, as destructive as they can be, don't really need to be given names in order for us to be able to refer to them in the future. No one is going to be sat there in 2035 referring to 'Storm Barbara' as if it were Hurricane Katrina. 'Ah. I remember that day back in 2017 as if it were yesterday. My bin blew over and I had to wear an extra jacket.' If they insist on naming them to reflect their supposed magnitude, why don't they at least call them something badass like 'Storm Valkyrie' rather than somehow managing to name them all after elderly ladies 'Storm Doris', 'Storm Barbara'. It just sounds utterly laughable. Imagine 'Hurricane Ethel', 'Typhoon Dierdre', 'Tropical Storm Maude'. All these names just make me visualise a swirling mass of floral tea towels, egg custards and patchwork blankets hitting the coast of the UK rather than actual weather.

Good point! Not just that, you get money back if you take the empty bottle back to the shop!

The ice cream vans are brilliant up there too. They sell bread, fags and all sorts.

It's pretty bad here. I don't sleep well though storms because I lived in a house a few years ago where I genuinely feared the roof might collapse, or a tree might fall on the house.

So I'm up. And just about to start working. (The glamorous life of a freelancer...)
