Hurricane bawbag
Anyone in Scotland, Ireland and northern England will know about Hurricane bawbag wreaking havoc for most of the day on Thursday.
It actually did me a favour when it blew the leaves from my garden trees, and anything that wasnt tied down like dustbins or scrap car parts into a neighbours garden?? or over the sea to Denmark or somewhere.... Seriously uneventful for me apart from having workplace bets on what lazy git wanted to leave next.
Did it affect anyone and how did your day go at work? Its also possible to buy the 'I was there' type tshirt and mug memorabilia from the same places I found these images, you couldnt make it up.

Quote from ForthOne facebook
A hurricane of biblical
strength blasted across North and Central
Scotland.
Victims can be seen wandering aimlessly
muttering: "Ah wiz pure shittin' masel big man so a
wiz, ah need some jellies". The hurricane decimated
the area, causing approximately £30 worth of
damage. Untold disruption and distress was
caused:
* Many were woken well before their giro arrived.
* Several priceless collections of mementos from
the Balearics and Spanish costas were damaged.
* Three areas of historic and scientifically significant
litter were disturbed.
* The cone fell off the head of the statue outside
Glasgow’s Modern Art Gallery.
* Thousands are confused and bewildered, trying to
come to terms with the fact that something
interesting has happened in Scotland.
* One resident, Pocahontis McGlinchy, a 17 year old
mother-of-three said "Ah wiz like ‘Whit’s that?
Ah,canny hear ma choonz innat man’ Wee Beyonce
came running into my bedroom pure howlin so she
wiz. My youngest two, Brooklyn an Blackpool slept
through it. I was still pure rattlin when I was
watching Jeremy Kyle the next morning."
* Apparently though, looting did carry on as
normal.
* The British Red Cross have so far managed to ship
4000 crates of Buckfast to the area to help the
stricken masses.
* Rescue workers are still searching through the
rubble and have found large quantities of personal
belongings including benefit books and jewellery

Our site was closed at 10. It would seem we all lost a shift for nothing, we escaped the worst off it.
