I have to work today

but it looks nice and dry

VERY gust today in Numb & Cauld. I'm off today and working on the CCTV system after the window guy has been. As much as I fancy a wee blast, the wind & the slippery roads are ensuring that there's no way I'm going out. Perhaps this way I'll get the system upgrade finished today.

Cheers,

Garry

At 10 past 1 I thought "Bugger, just missed him, could've gone on that."

At 10 past 2 I though "Christ, it's coming down stair rods, have fun Jim!"

You made a good choice there I think. Another time

I've been out all afternoon so didn't see the offer. ****in scary let me tell you. Bike all over the shop. The raods are dry here too but a bit greasy in the shade. Just back in thankfully in one piece.

Yep, quite a tricksie wind... I've ridden in worse but this is the sort that could catch you out, since it's so on/off.
