    Well at least it didn’t stop Robert Horne delivering :lol1: :lol1: Got a headache from the constant rattle of the roller shutter door, I say rattle but use the term loosely, when the wind was gusting I was sure they were going to buckle at times.

    Robert, don’t know what it’s like over your way but it has just about blown itself out over this side now. At least the roof is still on the unit for now so that’s a plus. Thought I was going to lose it this afternoon a few times.

    Well now I need to go out and look for any signs that have blown down and offer to quote to put them back up again :lol1: :lol1:

    thats exactly what us sign makers should be doing mate. seeing the business potential in all this before the customers start calling round the competition. 😉

    Well I heeded the governments warning, shut up shop at 2pm yesterday and did some work from home instead.

    About 9pm once the winds had died down I headed out in my car to check some recent sign installations were still in place. Glad to say all were unaffected. Meanwhile Alison smiled indulgently at my paranoia 😕
