Just signing off for a while guys...

We have hurricane Frances heading directly for........erm......me...

Could be back by Sunday if we don't get a big hit..but could be weeks if all the power gets taken out......

And if the worse happens, it's been nice knowing all of you.....

See you soon....

Seriously - Good luck, I was in the middle of hurricane Keith a few years ago when it hit Belize, interesting to say the least!

Just seen 'Twister' on the televison and looks like the advice is 'get a leather strap and tie yourself to a metal bar in a small shed'
it worked ok for them

Ps hope it misses you.

Ah...true locosting right to the end...


Cheers all......

wasnt it amazing that neither of them got hit by all the 200mph flying crap?

Also, those pipes seemed to come up, then go back in the ground soley for people to be strapped to....

these farm workers must have fun

Buy lots and lots of beer, it will make your house heavier and less likely to blow away

I do have to point out to you Alan, that next time you tell us how sunny etc it is in Florida, I will have to remind you that we dont get hurricanes.....
