Hi All, Here in Ireland we are being battered by storm Ophelia. while along side other parts of the world hit by storms recently this is small but 2 people have lost their lives. Schools have shut and work places closing early. Power lines also going down so any one over here leave out supplies handy and a torch. Bad enough having a night time leak but one you cant see that would be crap. Tony H from (where in the world) you are on the coast so hope all well with you and your loved ones. ileostomy 31st August 1994 for Crohns I hope ye dont get it as bad as we did John , we had a few gusts over 100mph and its still fairly nasty but we still have power , main road into Cobh https://photos.app.goo.gl/8Yo1NOx7jchwaMPA2 Its blowing a racket here at the moment, weather forecast said between 3/5pm would be our worst time. ileostomy 31st August 1994 for Crohns Wow, that's crazy - I'm on the other side of the world and we just got a very unusual storm last night that knocked out many trees in the area. When I looked outside, it honestly resembled a hurricane. Just your friendly neighborhood ostomate.
