Here, in France, there is a gale blowing, I mean a real gale, I don't
mind being in the garden even when it's raining but it is dangerous
with tiles coming off roofs.

Terrible here in Normandy. It just isn't safe to be outside
- everything is blowing past the window - plastic plant
pots, garden chairs, trees, sheep, cows, tractors :-)
I fear for our roof in this weather. At least we should be
too hight up to be flooded, though the road below could
become unpassable.

I've just come back from a friend's and I was dodging fallen branches,
it seems even though you and I are in different parts of France, our
weather is the same.


We've got a 9 month old puppy to exercise, had him on a shortish walk
through the woods today, a large oak had come down across the path,
was held up by trees on the other side. We ran underneath, things were
really swinging around. Then found out later a lorry driver was killed quite
near here as an oak came down on his cab.

A hard day on the ridge in Normandy. I'm glad I got the shutters closed last
night.
