Hope Our Neighbours North Of Us Are Safe

[Bobbisox1]

We're around 90 miles from Edinburgh and have had rain , albeit light stuff  all day but I'm reading of landslides up there in Glasgow?
stay safe 😒

Nothing wrong with the OP, jno.

 

RH, you forgot to post your link.

I think naomi is only trying to keep it civilised so as not to descend into rants about free stuff and scottish.

No landslides in Glasgow Gulliver but many roads and rail-lines flooded (including a fairly spectacular staircase waterfall in Greenock) 😯

[Toorak]

... or I should have said "and" rather than "including" - I know where Greenock is!

[jno]

... or was, Toorak...

[Toorak]

Yes, Jno - it is probably floating down the Clyde estuary by now 😧

[Tuvok]

Been raining here non stop since last night!

[Toorak]

It also rained here for most of Thursday so the ground is well and truly sodden. We now have another amber warning for tomorrow.

Up here in Aberdeen it has been slooshing down all day.I hope King Charles wears his welly beets when he goes out and about.

And me, down south, have had to have my garden pots watered this evening.  No rain here.

My old flat was in an attic and rain and wind were a constant cause of panic.

But now that I am on the first floor I actually feel really calm.  Alas, some area of Perth are not so lucky.

And no doubt someone will blame the SNP.

you stand up for your right to local weather, wolf. It's going to be 25 and sunny all day down here and I'm going to a barbie.

[wolf63]

Jno, would Scotland be so beautiful without the rain?

Warm rain in Summer is quite refreshing!

😂

we had a summerful of rain, but now it's October and nice ☂

[JimF]

It's been raining off and on all day in Glasgow. Luckily, I had nothing to do other than marvel at the skills of the Irish rugby team... :-(

you'd feel a good deal happier if you were Samoan, I guess.
