Anglo Traction 761 #1 Posted October 26, 2013 Look's like we're in for an Autumn Storm Sunday pm /Monday am from the Midlands down. Been up on the roof to tighten up the TV Ariel Mast and check the Gutters/Downpipes....Winds forecast 60-80mph.... should strip the Trees of leaves. Got the Chain Saw at the ready . Glad I got the rest of my windows replaced 2 weeks ago, so I'm hopefully weather tight now. Calm time before the storm will be occupied by watching F1 Sunday am Watch out Lars, Storm maybe heading in your direction. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

farmer 1,078 #5 Posted October 27, 2013 If you think its going to be stormy this weekend wait till next year, Kimi back with Ferrari and team 'mate' with Alonso and hopefully Maclaren back again. Hamilton/ Mercedes can only get better too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hamilton/ Mercedes can only get better too. Your right Rex, add to that the new Engine Regs down to 1.6ltr V6 etc..... should be a recipe for some real friction.

AMC RULES 37,195 #7 Posted October 28, 2013 Did you fare well with the storm Richard? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anglo Traction 761 #8 Posted October 28, 2013 Yes thanks Craig........ No problems at all, slept right through it. Didn't even get to use the Chainsaw. Other people and areas in the South of the country didn't. Unfortunately about 4 deaths caused by fallen Trees and a lot of damage and disruption. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stigian 1,234 #11 Posted October 29, 2013 No damage here, a bin lid got loose, the cover blew off the top of my E-tank, and a slight leak in the shack roof where the rain blew under the felt somewhere.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 9,984 #12 Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) Not been bad here. Though I have spent all afternoon clearing up leaves from next door neighbours trees. The garden, yard and house and workshop gutters were full of the things. AGAIN! Why can't they land in their property?
