Some horrific pics, especially from W of Scotland; people turning up at airports so they can claim a refund!

There was footage of a wee plane landing at Edinburgh airport on the news - a bit of a shoogily landing! I’d be filling up a sick bag or three!

Was working last night till 8am, was a bit hairy coming back the M8 and Queensferry crossing. Shops still opened today, and looks like they are opening tomorrow despite power cuts at bakery all day and winds still through roof 🙄 lucky me delivering to Lanarkshire so fingers crossed its not too bad!

My greenhouse too…I would have been off to McCreadie’s next week like umpteen times before but fortunately my neebs dismantled hers couple of years back and I volunteered to take the panes off her!

Yesterday cancelled jobs and got pile of admin work done before power went out

Had fence with shoogly post stay put bizarrely

Fence the other side of garden was perfectly ok it’s now half down


And we’ve had no power since lunchtime yesterday - bottom lapwing drive and no updates on when it will be back on either
So probably head up town to warm up later

Maybe get yourself up to leisure centre for a hot shower ?

Anybody see the news footage of the Gregg’s lorry blown over ?

The driver was probably told he had to make the journey despite his reservations.

If so, somebody in management needs to justify why an employee’s life was endangered when the police were clearly advising no needless travel.

Baynes had us out both days, not even the slightest bit of concern for drivers or shop staff and will have lost an absolute fortune in wasted food. Got to repair the bakery roof now too 😂

Hot food truck and warm spaces locations for those who are still without power.

I`ve heard the power may not be restored until at least Monday, relying on screenshots sent from the Blairhall community page on Facebook as I`m not on social media
