It's blowing a hooligan here, I was thinking of going to the beach this morning at low tide but thought I'd probably get sand blasted!

It is very windy here, think a dark cloud has blown over thank goodness, just done a bit of gardening and watered pots as they dry out quickly
Have noticed my geraniums seem to be going over, thought it was a bit early, might try to do cuttings, my mother always did  and she only had boxes outside her flat door and they always looked nice
Wonder what high tide will bring?

Don't normally post here but thought I'd share this with you.
Phone call from my Grandfather at 8:30 he was golfing, he'd forgotten that his car was booked in for a service would I take it for him. Shoes on then. Eldest hopping around getting his trousers on. Ears like a bat this one, he wanted to come. Walking to Grans he was nearly losing his trousers, he didn't have a belt on, so told him to hold them up till we got there.  Noodles, the cat was on the wall wanting a fuss. Kyle forgot about his trousers reaching up so down they came just as gran came out. Pull your trousers up I don't want to see tomorrows washing she told him. She used to say the same thing to me  :) She got a piece of string threaded through the loops to hold them up.
Driving away noticed in the mirror Gran waving told Kyle to wave. A few people about some waved so waved back.
Got to the junction and as I stopped Noodles came sliding down the windscreen over the bonnet and onto the road. That's why people were waving,  the cat was on the roof  ;D ;D I was still laughing when we got to the garage.  :D :D
Kyle, who has no shame, decide to show my mate at the garage that he had string holding his trousers up. Phoned Gran as we walked back, Noodles was back home and OK.
Rest of the day went without further excitement. Quite boring after this morning :)

I'm just thankful he came off there otherwise he might have stayed on when I went through town.
That would have been a sight for the early shoppers  :D
