curiouswombat: (Blustery /day)
It's very windy here at the moment, Force 8 touching Force 9, 35-40 mph winds with gusts up to 60 or 70 mph. [livejournal.com profile] dougalsservant told me, in an e-mail, that up on Skye last night it was a Force 11 touching 12! That's hurricane strength. So her weather makes ours seem like a gentle breeze - and both put the weather in Queensland into some sort of context - they had 170+mph winds that broke many of the measuring devices. I was very glad to hear that there is very little or no loss of life - but the photos here on the BBC are very sad.

Totally unrelated to weather, my daughter sent me a link to this. It is headed Five Emotions Invented by The Internet.

I have to admit to suffering regularly from all the last three - and probably the only reason I don't suffer from the first two is because I don't use IM very often, and don't have a Twitter account! I bet you'll read it nodding your head and feeling slightly embarrassed!
