And deep fried pizza!


Batten down the hatches Jim, keep yourselves safe. It's pretty gusty down here but we've had a lot worse from the easterlies.

Aye it's pretty grim up here in the West of Scotland. The wind has been nicknamed "Hurricane bawbag"

I'm looking at the left hand side perimeter fence in the rear garden...looks like a post has gone.

Never mind...that is the neighbours responsibility :DL

When the title of this thread I thought Scotland always gets a battering, then saw it was about the weather :har::haha:

I think this is one of the best pics from Bawbag so far:

Holy sh.... moke! :o

I thought they were supposed to be disabled in strong winds. Mrs Haggisbotham now has 120,000 volts through her electric blanket.

Could really go for a deep fried cheeseburger. Yum! Glad not to be in an LCM on the Holy Loch for that weather. :D

Let's just hope that's the only thing she plugged in when she got into bed. :O:
