http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6272193.stm Seven people have died, travel has been severely disrupted and thousands of homes have been left without power as gales and heavy downpours hit the UK. A two-year-old boy died when a wall fell on him in Kentish Town, London.

Yep pretty much all the houses around here have at least a fence panel missing. First time that's ever happened. |

We were jumping and letting the wind blow us into the fences, that's how windy it was. Cheshire Oaks (a shopping centre), was closed down because tiles from the room where flinging off, and the whole front of a shop fell down. |

It seems to have calmed down now though, I'm glad I didn't go out to school. I wonder how the weathers going to be tommorow. |

I was enjoying the winds until today. >_> My car has been destroyed because a hugh oak tree had collapsed on top of it. It's now a complete wright off. Next door neighbours conservatory glass door has completely smashed. Our brand new fencing that was just put up last Friday has been destroyed, and on top of all that I have fallen over 3 times today. :sigh: |

At school some of the roof blew away, and two trees blew over. At work a load of the roll cages got blown down a hill. At home a few fence panels are down and the garden table is half way across the lawn.
