Nope, sorry, can't find it. Being the lazy, idle lump that I am, I'm going to ask that you copy and paste the replies again, so I can see them, and gain respect for you.
Can you copy and paste the replies again?

I am not going to pander to your idleness by reposting. This is a short thread, most of it is in here.

Tsk. Idle bugger!

Except, strangely enough the answer to the question - which is nowhere to be found. *However* I'm sure that I, like Sput, have just been remiss in looking.

Oh please Stu. I'll love you forever....

Still can't find it though.

Have you tried looking? I hope you feel very stupid because it's right there, plain as day. I am looking at it right now. And a very percetive and insighful observation it was too.

Oh no, it's gone again!

Hmm... the weather here is typically uninteresting, but I *am* trapped at a trian station as a result of the storm, so that's something!

My co-workers at the hotel spent most of the night keeping an eye on a marquee that was threatening to take off - it's hosting a conference of pizza people today so hopefully it's still there now.

At 6:30am we heard a tree had come down on the road running through the hotel grounds, so that had to be sorted. Earlier I had taken a wander out on the smoking terrace behind the bar and was nearly blown off the edge.

Add to all this while I was looking after my part of the hotel - which is 200 years old - the wind whistling through all the gaps in the brickwork and causing doors to open on their own. Guests and staff alike were very unsettled.

Sunny but slightly windy in North London now

It's very dark and gloomy here in Overton right now. Very windy too.

It's damp and chilly in the other capital city this morning. One member of staff said she didn't sleep for the noise of the wind last night, but she's only saying it to avoid the photo shoot we're having today for some marketing material.

Was windy here all night but it's currently sunny with little or no wind. Pressure is down at 959mb; we're currently at pretty much the centre of the depression and as it passes further west I expect the wind to increase again.

In terms of how the forecasts performed, it would appear the track of the storm was a little more southerly than predicted and pressure was not quite as low as expected (945mb was predicted, as above, it's at 959mb). High tide here is at 1254, will go and have a look at just how high it turns out to be...

Just been to the shops and back. It's a 20 second walk from my house to there, and it's fucking pissing it down. I'm soaked to the skin.
