Windy in North Wales

[AngusMcDoon]

Looks like it's North Wales' turn this week. 70mph gusts in Aberdaron and over 80 in the Irish Sea. If only I had an A22 it would be a good day out.

it's getting up again here in Essex but if we drag THIS mooring I shall be very surprised!

We are in Beaumaris. It has been blowing old boots in the past hour and I don't remember seeing heavier rain ever. Blue sky again now but probably still F 8.

I'm on my way to Beaumaris to clean the bilge, free off my skin fittings, start to fix my log, free the stuck neutral selector on the throttle, start to remove the old toilet etc, etc, tomorrow - I love refits (I actually do!).
