The weather gods can fuck off! Ms Monkey does not appreciate having to dash out into the storm to rescue the wheelie bin at 6am...nor being woken up at 5.58am by said escaping wheeled plastic! Today will be spent grumpily vegetating on the sofa.

Well, it was certainly wild last night although Ms Monkey has woken to a calm, still Kernow. Might have to take the dog out for a bit of beachcombing later to see what the storm has brought in. Stay safe if you are still affected. Éowyn is wild

Can't sleep because of the wind. Ms Monkey is only in a yellow warning area so goth only knows how rough it is in Éire and Alba tonight. Stay safe gentle folks. #StormÉowyn

Nadelik Lowen from Kernow. Ms Monkey has opened her presents and is eyeing up the Bolly. I should probably do the chores first and then it's time to press gang the Monkey boys into chopping veg.

After several days in bed, having coughed up several lungs worth of mucus and completely missing Storm Darragh, Ms Monkey has finally dragged her sorry arse out of bed and donned her gay apparel. Apparently, tonsillitis isn't fatal, so no need for a hurried obituary on this occasion.

Day two of 'the lurgi'. Currently glaring at the empty space where my tree should be, alas I have no energy. Last night's 'let's get a kebab because I can't be arsed to cook' didn't end well and is currently sustaining the sewer system. It was a great kebab...not so much on the way back up though

Who needs Rudolph when you have 'disco dog' to guide your way? Fabulous sunrise over Copperhouse Pool this morning, which gave way to mizzle. Now back at home nursing a chest infection and a cup of tea. Today will be spent coughing up a lung on the sofa.

Oh how marvelous! My new medication has vertigo as a side effect. Now walking to the kitchen feels a little like a trip on The Scillonian on a blustery day.* Alas, no tropical gardens or chilled Rattler await me today.

... and someone puked behind the sofa while I was out. All of the beasties are feigning innocence but I think the dog will probably crack under torture (no animals were harmed in the making of this...ah...one supposes that we can't call them tweets, so I shall just use missive until I am corrected).

Today I will be sporting the 'drowned rat' look. Apparently I have pissed off the weather gods yet again and they decided to have sport with me as I unloaded the car after battling the hoards in Asda for cheese and frivolities. Hopefully, dumping the entire Atlantic on my head will appease them...

Finally! After only 20 months of living in my new house, I have wrested control back from my thermostat which has stubbornly resisted my efforts to control the temperature of my home...I changed the batteries. 🤦

Goth but there's a lot of sky out there this morning. Red in the morning and all that...seems like a good excuse to stay in and throw some festive bling around the house. It's either that or deal with the admin I have been putting off since forever...and will be putting off again today.

On days like this morning, owning a dog is an absolute pleasure. On the days when it's pissing it down, I'm definitely a cat person.

The calm after the storm...it actually doesn't look that calm out there but at least the sun's out. I did manage to find the one solitary shower you'll be pleased to hear.

Anybody else have to get out of bed to go and rescue their wheelie bins from being blown off a cliff at 3.30 this morning, in driving rain and a howling gale?
Just me then...#StormBert

Bert's here! Gales and horizontal rain. I currently have a house filled with disgruntled cats and a dog who is refusing to go outside for a pee. I suspect that today is going to be somewhat fraught...

The dog has the right idea. It's still bloody cold out there... although I shall probably miss it when Bert turns up this evening. They're missing a trick if they don't call the next storm Ernie!

Dawn over Copperhouse Pool. The calm before storm Bert arrives. Even here in sunny Kernow it's a bit nippy today. Happy Friday folks...

Weather coming in sideways. I am reconsidering my decision to go to the post office and am contemplating hibernating in front of the log burner instead. Perhaps a Die Hard marathon will make me feel a bit more festive?

Dark enough on this morning's dog walk for Disco Dog to make her appearance. Almost as reliable a harbinger for Christmas as the Mariah Carey... although possibly less irritating.

NEW: Satirical outlet @theonion.com has acquired Alex Jones’s INFOWARS at auction, in a deal backed by some of the Sandy Hook families and Everytown for Gun Safety.
The plan is to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking weird internet personalities who peddle conspiracies.
Beautiful.
