Whipping Up A Storm...

There is no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing - Sir Ranulph Fiennes

Welcome to Windy Tuesday.
I could hear the wind chimes having a good bang outside.
Storm Gareth was coming in...
First cuppa of the day↓

I am glad I am putting my leggings on...
The wind is getting up...

The wind and rain was lashing at the Sexy Beast while onto work I went.
Even the temperatures were falling ↘↘↘
As it was far too windy and the rain was lashing down....
So no pictures of the surrounding countryside today.... 
The rain was still coming down when I got home....
 
 I enjoyed cheese on toast with coffee.
 
  The rain stopped and the sun came out!
After I finished the other job,
I need a nice chicken stir fry,
with plenty of garlic, ginger and spinach thrown in....
We watched:
and
 The wind was still banging my wind chimes..
That banging gives me ideas....
