Hi Arachnids, Thank you for your concern. Not much damage in our area, thank goodness, just some debris in the garden. I live near the top of a hill and even a large tree we thought might have come down stayed put -it will have to come down soon to protect the surrounding properties-. There have been some trees down and several of our surrounding villages have had power cuts, but it certainly has not been as bad as the 1987 hurricane. I am just sad for the four people who lost their lives because of the storm in the UK. Three were just in the wrong place at the wrong time; the fourth one seemed somewhat foolhardy. He went swimming in a rising sea while storm warnings had been out for several days. He put other lives in danger as well as they had to go out to sea in the storm and search for him.
Will get my pillow out today and try to finish my bit of lace for the exchange. Happy lace making, Joepie in -at present sunny- East Sussex, UK - From: Clay Blackwell Dear spiders! I am so concerned about all of my friends in the UK and Europe who are experiencing the storms! These are so similar to the storms we had last year, and they were devastating! So, please keep us posted as you get past the worst of the storms, and as you learn of others who were not so fortunate, let our list know.
