Just finished sorting all my mud caked gear. 20-30mph winds 50 mph gusts, constant heavy torrential rain and a bite in the wind. 3 bivvies(not mine) gave up the ghost, most packed up within 24 hours.
I do this for pleasure? Stuck it out, lost one on a zig, 2 fish, one a 26 common. So YES, yes I do

They are now saying when storm Ciara is over we are potentially getting hit by storm Dennis.

Less than quarter of a mile from us.

The thunder was the loudest crack I have ever heard and the incredible lightning blew all our fuses. Luckily we had got everything turned off, as we could see the broiling sky approaching. Even so, when we got everything back up I thought that the electrical charge that passed through the ground had burnt out my motherboard. Luckily, after three failed attempts to turn the PC back on it came back. BT phone and internet were badly disrupted but at least my router didn't fly 10 yards across the room.

It has been a hairy old couple of days and it seems there is more to come!
