Blustery Babet

"Storm Babet - a name selected by the Dutch weather agency KMNI - was named after a woman who visited an open day at its headquarters and put her own name forward, with the additional reason "because I was born during a storm" (info courtesy of the BBC)

Very windy all day. Walked down to the Pier to see the waves. Took this blip. Then went to 'Ounce' in Westbourne for coffee. Returned home soon after.

Had yet another leak in the kitchen from flat above this afternoon. Have only just has the ceiling painted after the last one. Had to empty a kitchen cupboard, and will presumably need to be replaced.

Babet arrives tomorrow. Amber alert for the North of England/Scotland. Due to get strong winds and heavy rain here - for a couple of days.
