I just turn my back for 5 minutes (i.e. a full train driver's shift) and I see that West Sussex is getting abused :lol:

The Garage has Drainage inside and the road out side has very good run off.

Have very high tides at the moment, approx 1300 Hrs tomorrow. Should be interesting. :)

Weather forecast for Folkestone tomorrow is 12c, 75mph winds and rain.
A pleasant summer's day for Scotland! :lol:

Looks like Jersey/Guernsey and northern France will get the worst of it with potential 100mph gusts. The BBC Weather forecast earlier inspired confidence by kicking off with a large image in the background with houses missing their roofs :? and then zoomed the weather map onto Jersey :?

The house missing the roof was earlier in the week with a small tornado in Sussex

As I will be pretty much in the eye it's mild and breezy

On 16 October 1987 Sevenoaks lost several of its Oak trees. 25 January 1990 was pretty blowy too. I was living near Guildford and had no electricity for a few days.

But as I was working in the claims department of an insurance company on both occasions the overtime was a bonus. :D

I don't think my house insurance covers storm damage to the roof, certainly wont cover replacing it if it went missing :|

No storm damage? That is rather limited as that is really when you need it. My insurance has no exclusions besides nuclear warfare and riots.

Need to check it again, think it excludes specific roof damage from winds over 60mph.

If that is excluded I'd be wanting to change insurer - that's bugger-all use! :o
