I hope you've all battened down the hatches for the 70-80Mph Winds tonight!
I hope your minis, are safely chained to the ground!

A telegraph pole isn't going to fall over Raz ;)

They're bedded approx 1 - 1.5 metres in the ground. And even if a pole was sliced with a chainsaw, it's highly possible it would stay in place if there were enough wires in all directions to hold it there. :)

Trust me if you saw the weight of some of the people that climb the things you'd think again about how likely they are to snap in half :) !

ill be eating bog roll on toast for weeks!!!!
its a mclucking joke... i drove the mini out of the garage today and she said "is everything away? i dont want everything everywhere.... especially your oily mini bits!" then when i looked at her in disgust she says im being unreasonable... sometimes i wonder where i have come from....
she will be ******* herself tonight... the slightest bit of wind and she will be running round the house shouting "EVERYONE UNDER YOUR :) BEDS!!!! NOW!!!" proper army style... i worry about her sometimes....
