I ventured out a couple of hours ago and things were not too bad at that stage.
However, on the way back I saw a tree which had snapped clean in two in the front garden of a house.
It wasn't the tallest tree you'll ever see but I wouldn't have wanted to be near it when the top half fell.
I've just been to check the neighbour's house and a few bits of debris were flying around the place.
The wind speed has increased considerably and I am now quite worried as to what might happen over the next few hours.
I'm getting lunch as early as decently possible in the hope that I can finish it before a power cut which is to be expected under the circumstances.
The neighbour's flight from Germany has been cancelled and, looking at FlightRadar24 website, I see several aircraft have had more than one attempt at landing at Heathrow.
That's it. The kitchen awaits!
