Seeing as they are digging up the tram lines we had to find a gap that we could drive over to get the car on the prom :D . Tried to open the car door but the wind was that strong it was impossible. Seen a slight RTA, car drove straight into the back of another one, both almost brand new cars. One was foreighn plated, the other English. It was the English mans fault as well .:eek:
Some of the illuminations had been blown down. Overall a good ride out.

Well, glad you enjoyed all that jimmi5 ... sure there was a warning not to drive unless absolutely necessary. I have had to drive in all types of weather with my job, but never considered high winds and rain any sort of fun whilst driving.

Still rather windy out there & hasnt stopped peeing it down, i ended up with a rather big swimming pool at the side as my drain blocked up - so looks like dyno rod is on call some point this week - luck the wind blew the pool downwards so drained into the grass for now till the washer/bath is used.

Its supposed to be like this all week:eek:

I had to go out early evening to the docs and did a slippery sliding act in Avenue Parade. That was fun! Hope this improves by Wednesday morning as I've got to go out again then.

Busman is out somewhere in the regions on Manchester at the mo bringing a party of schoolchildren home from a concert.
