Hurricane

21st October

As we knew from the forecast, we were hit by remains of hurricane Gonzalo today. We attempted to move off from the bank, but were promptly blown back onto it. Something definitely telling us to stay put for the day, which we did.

Despite it being considerably colder, Pete remained in his shorts and periodically throughout the day, pressed his eager face to the windows stating "I think it's calming down" whereupon another huge gust would flap the covers, bump us onto the bank and cause the doors to swing to and fro.

Batten down the hatches, keep the fire alight and the kettle on, we're not going anywhere.
