Looking at the photos below its hard to think this was just two days ago. As I type this the farmhouse windows are rattling as a gale rages outside. After a week of stunning weather for our first week back on the island, its all change today. With 70mph gusts and 7m swells forecast for tonight into tomorrow morning we decided to lift one of the island boats out of the water and take the other round to Porth Clais and back to St Davids for a full service by our friends at Robust Boats

So its a case of battening down the hatches tonight and seeing what tomorrow morning brings.....

No more blue skies for a while!

And this is why - a deep area of low pressure battering the UK
