Wind, rain, warmth!

What an amazing day - torrential rain, really high winds! I am often surprised at the strength of the wind here in Newcastle. My tree is almost bare now, and the road covered in slippery, slimy leaves. Nothing to do then, but stay home and knit.
I should really have been packing more boxes but...
My Rayburn has been fixed - we have been without central heating and hot water downstairs since the beginning of September. It has been horrible - the house became so cold. I did not realise how much we all relied on our Rayburn. Anyway, she is mended, for now and we are warm and the cats are - guess? yes, in the kitchen on the blanket!
