"What ever happened to the good old days

when children worked in factories?"

Plymouth Sound got a little crowded

as storm "Dennis" rolled in from the Atlantic and up the English Channel,

Shortly before dusk yesterday afternoon

The rain stopped, patches of blue sky appeared among the clouds, and the wind dropped to a breeze.

But according to the Weather Forecast, storm "Dennis" revs up again on Monday.

Looking across the valley

Many of the districts in Plymouth are perched on hillsides.

Over the centuries various ingenious methods of communication 

with friends and relatives across the valleys have developed.

I favour the complicated yodeling system that many use.

Winter Storm "Dennis" is due to hit us today

bringing with it very heavy rain and winds up to 70 mph.

Plymouth Waterfront will probably look like this impressionistic painting, by Yannick Tonnelier,

 of storm "Ciara" which hit us last week.

Here is the hour by hour forecast for today from the Meteorological Office. 

Psychoanalysis is the confession without absolution.
