If it's howling a gale and pouring with rain come Saturday morning, taking off at Heathrow is going to be [more] interesting [than normal] ;D

No flying at my favourite highland haunt today. Bit of a shame you can't see the windsock. I suppose you might catch it going past when it detaches itself from its' pole. ;D

I think the wind is gonna be at it's worst down in the central belt of Scotland, today.
Hope it cleasr up tomorrow as I've to go pick up my eldest from Uni, and take her home for Xmas (FFS its only just turn December).
Route:-  Aberdeen, Dundee, Perth, Inverness & then home.  :-[

Wind and rain is bad in stoke. 60 mph winds here. Manchester just as bad. The whole country sounds like it's taking a battering.

The mig is like a rocking chair out there.
