Tally Report post Posted March 21, 2008 It's been really windy here. When I got home this morning, there was a rabbit hopping around my garden I couldn't catch it, but it ran next door. I knocked on their door to tell them. I went round the back to try and corner the rabbit in their garden until they could get out there, and it was a real mess. They have a big kind of multi-storey hutch with several rabbits and guinea pigs, around 6 foot high, and it had blown over and smashed. I thought some of the animals must have got killed falling that distance, but we managed to catch them all and they weren't hurt, just a bit wet and scared! Their cat came out to try and help us catch the guinea pigs, but I'm not certain his intentions were honourable! Their gate had been ripped off too. My garden is OK, which is a relief!

ScienceGeek Report post Posted March 21, 2008 It has been horrible here for a lot of the day. We had hail for a little while that looked like ice peas falling from the sky. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I want to build a snow alien and an igloo and make snow angels - I haven't seen any snow this year at all Maybe you could put a few snowballs in a freezer box and send them over by express delivery?

Tally Report post Posted March 22, 2008 Today has been lovely and sunny, but very windy and cold. Mitzi went missing for several hours, which is odd for a cat who is terrified of wind. She came back and fell asleep for quite a while! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mumble Report post Posted March 22, 2008 There's a weather warning for snow where I live tomorrow morning. Typically this means I won't sleep well tonight and I'll be up checking several times from about 3am onwards to see if it has started to snow Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oxgirl Report post Posted March 23, 2008 You know the story about how the sun and the wind have an argument about who is the strongest so they decide to have a competition to see who can get some poor guy to take his coat off??!.............well, I went for a four mile run yesterday and I felt just like that guy! First it was a really warm sun, so I took my gloves off and opened my jacket, then I turned the corner and it was a howling gale in my face, trying to rip my jacket off, then it suddenly clouded over, went all dark and it started snowing on me and I had to try and dig my gloves out and put them on again, then, near the end, the sun came out again I had to take them off again. Not sure who won, it certainly wasn't me though. ~ Mel ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
