Here's hoping...

Although we are still facing horrendous weather here (though no flooding, since we are so high up, so we are a lot luckier than many), there is a glimmer of light on the horizon - well 2, actually.

The first comes from the Met Office who are saying that as long as we can all get through the 80mph winds we are forecast today - and of course the 40mm of rain - then its going to start to calm down over the weekend and we may even have a break from the storms next week. Wouldn't that make a pleasant change?

If its true I might even be able to catch up on the backlog of filming which has been put on hold for most of this week and last week - so watch this space!

The second and more guaranteed ray of sunshine comes in the form of SB, who is down for half term - yippee :-) 

[ETA: photo comes from this time last year - look how dry and sunny it was! Ack, ack ack...]
