Severe Weather Warnings...

We have just rescued the boys 14ft Trampoline that took flight in the wind, from the road that runs passed our house. Its gusting at about 70mph at the moment. Luckily a woman driving down the hill, watched it come flying over the Hedge. She blocked the road with her car and then came and knocked on our door.. We've managed to dismantle what was left of it and get it back on our property. Thank god it didn't hit a car and cause an injury to anybody.. It had gone over one farm gate, missed Mick's car in the drive, blown down the drive, hit my car, only the glass in the wing mirror broken and then took off over the hedge.
I don't know whether the power's going to go out, as the wind was blowing us off our feet outside. Bet there will be power lines down tonight.
If I can I will update later on the trunk. But won't make any promises... Off to get the candles ready, just in case....

  4. Stay inside and don't get hit by flying Trampolines!!! We get some pretty heavy winds here in Tucson too. I know how you feel. I hope that there is no more damage there!
