The news is full of storm news. Widespread destruction is expected and the news channels are very excited. They love it really

Shower doors can explode.

Tempered glass doors sometimes can shatter violently. It only takes a slight flaw, a break, a scratch or an imperfection.​

Ours burst with a roar about ten minutes after going to bed. Nobody was in the bathroom and the door was shut. It may be relevant that the central heating had gone off so the house was cooling off into the night. Nobody used the shower for at least 12 hours and we’re not aware of any damage that could have started this.
Beware.

Afternoon on the Moss.

8°C, light S breeze.dry and some sun.

Down to 13 St 9lbs. I’d better not get any lower than this at this time of year. The last part of my ride saw energy vanish. I haven’t eaten enough.
