Heathrow and Michael fish non storm

Swissair Airbus was moved towards the terminal but undamaged..El Al had a container hit it iirc or maybe one blew across the runway as it was landing. Mate landed a 747 in 47 knots of wind,,surprisingly smooth.
Essex hit far worse as I was driving to LHR in a Saab 900 wearing a crash helmet with the sky lit up from arcing power cables.. only one emergency radio channel on..got to Wickford from Leigh and did a 180 as A127 blocked..about 5 am..had to drive to Manchester to buy tiles to fix my roof.
