It's like the great storm of 87, except with actual high winds and less news coverage.

Yep, and that is the temperature started dropping and the hailstones now started......it has gone from 7'C to 1.5'C in the last 3 hours.
Maybe I should go and put my winter tyres on the car, or maybe I should just stay inside and continuing playing with my Raspberry Pi and Gertboard with the heating on .
Yes, I am trying to get my Episode 2 article finished that I started over a year ago

Stay inside is my vote! I *have* to go out - that beer in the pub won't drink itself.

I am scheduled to be in the pub by 5.30 at the latest, schedules all going well, maybe by around 5.

Lunchtime for me - around 12:30. Then after the girls get home, I'll head into London around 5 for dinner at 7. Hopefully we'll be home by pumpkins.

I am off kids duties today, the wife picks them up from school today and takes them to swimming lessons, I will be away by the time they get home, then the baby sitter is due to arrive about 6 and the wife is heading out to different works do. She also has another one on Friday while I will be going on a Kids/Dads laser quest night with my eldest's teacher and the rest of her classes dads, that should be a hoot. I think we are both out on Saturday (not quite sure what yet) and the kids are off staying somewhere else, so get a 'lie in'
Back offshore on Tuesday for a rest, before getting home on the 24th.
Edit: Also negotiated that the wife will do the school run tomorrow, so I haven't got a care in the world what Time or State I get home/into tonight.

I have provisionally also booked a seat on the 23rd, as my replacement will be doubled up with me and he is happy if I scoot off a day early.

I guess that with the London Thames Flood Barrier in use, you'll be fine. Me, on the other hand, have a severe flood warning for 10.30pm tonight.

Ahhh, the storm. I thought you had been munching on some baked beans.
It does sound like that storm was packing quite a punch.

I've been thinking about writing a proggy that adds " eh" to the end of every input sentence.
Should I post an article about it here?

Where is the translation in this program? You are just adding extra world at end of each line, eh?

I take it you've never actually conversed with Canadians, eh?

I see where you are going, eh.

You need to globalise the app, NZ you need add "hey" to the end of the sentence and "i" with "u", for Oz just stick a "but" on the end of every sentence. I'll get the thing released when it comes through and then we can watch the ultra tight get their tits in a tangle.

For the Oz version, you also have to replace every '.' with a '?' to get the intonation right.
And don't forget the Welsh version: stick 'io' on the end of every verb, and get a six year old to spell the rest of it, Boyo.

I think we may be on a winner here - don't the scotch just randomise the alphabet.
