Ophelia

Phew! First of all thank you so much for all your well wishes, very touched. Well she came in roaring, and she's still having a good old grumble but I think she's laying havoc up in Donegal now. The electricity has just comeback on - how impressive that someone has been up a pole in this weather. We were resigned to a cold night by candlelight and several more days of the same. Four small trees down in the garden and a huge branch from the eucalyptus tree at the very top of the boreen obviously fell right across the road for we found someone had chainsawed and removed large chunks out of harms way. We haven't been out but although scary, I don't think the damage was as bad as four years ago when roads and piers were literally ripped up and trees scattered all over the place. Fineen appeared around 1pm, starving and twitchy but fairly stoical! Hope everyone up in Scotland and the west coast of the UK are okay and those in the east aren't getting sunburnt!
