It is our day to get our recycling bins emptied of plastic and cardboard.

What tends to happen around here is that the emptied bins blow away
until they fall into a ditch or hit a tree!

The wind has blown all of them over, and most of the contents are in our
and neighbours gardens. What a mess. It has bin(pun)like this for weeks now
with that wind. Just how Feb. should be IME. Not April.

It is still sort of OK since the spring has been so cold until now that
the trees are not in leaf. It has snapped a couple of branches on one of
my big fir trees though. When it calms down they will need lopping.

Only had a couple of serious days of wind causing actual damage recently
in N Yorks. The previous was about a month ago.

Probably Thatcher is having it's last laugh at us humans?

Who knows.
