Make sure you have enough peats in for the fire & enough water in case you need to stretch the whisky out a bit.

with enough Buckie down the hatch they probably dont even realise it's a wee windy

It's pretty bad, my office is near the back door and it is very loud!

I just went outside with the Wolf and while I held the door trying to get out she was head first into the wind and all her fur lay flat, she looked less than impressed with closed eyes and flat ears.
We managed to walk around the little copse area we have outside our house. Seemed pleased to be back inside.

Wild wind.

That's my fence gone! :cool2:

Oh dear!
