  1. Roofs falling in everywhere, it seems - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-25458009
  2. Being, possibly, even more pedantic, do you mean GB rather than UK?
  3. The parents had a sort of tornado affair this afternoon in Rathdowney, Co Laois. Brought a tree down across the road ( which they've moaned about for years! ) and sucked the gravel off the drive and spat it at the windows - two traffic cones went about fifty yards - etc.. There's just no arguing with those sorts of things. We had a proper tornado in Cyprus, Christmas Eve 1970 - the aftermath looked like a lawnmower had run over a train set.
  4. Kent Station partially re-opened - should have full services again in the morning.
  5. Money laundering..?
  6. Mmmm, the amount of sundering might suggest that it didn't come down slowly.. .. you can never really tell until you recover the situation.. .. a chap near me fell through the roof of his greenhouse and it took us fifteen minutes to carefully lift all the glass off him - not a mark.. ..but he could have been cut to pieces.
  7. There's a lot of heavy, pointy and splintery stuff there - very lucky, I would say.
  8. We're back to three injured - one taken to hospital and two treated at the scene. Could have been much worse. Best wishes to the three.
  9. ..you never know who's watching.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-25397143
  10. Further details here - http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/2726-Cork-Station-closed
  11. Still unclear, but there may "only" be one person injured - a female passenger.
  12. Another Twitter picture - https://twitter.com/EimearMcCormack/status/413335317702508544/photo/1
  13. There's a bit of collateral damage to some cars there in that last shot. Still no mention of injuries.
  14. Blimey! Looks nasty. Maybe they need Glenderg to rebuild it.... No mention of injuries - these things often give some warning before the final collapse. Let's hope everyone's OK.
  15. The wind, I presume.
  16. I was up all night doing the landscaping... ..Happy Birthday..
  17. It will live for ever - if the end approaches, then I could be tempted to get over a fence with a can of Halfords RAL 2011 - just to spite them.
  18. Currently showing this.. ..for the Me 109F - capable of going straight up - could have changed the course of the war..
  19. Excellent!
  20. It could be dangerous, being a postman in the South East - http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/the-missing-postman-26713401.html ... [video=youtube;-AGgbPb-Aww]
  21. I'm using Chrome without clearing for a while and it's still showing me the new one - the world will catch up with us soon enough.. The picture for the Airfix Me 109 is wrong, unless they heavily modified the F version for vertical take-off - add that to your To Do List...
  22. Irish rail on Twitter said just now - Due to flooding there will be a bus transfer from Killarney to Farranfore and Tralee until further notice
  23. Strange......
