Very well MJ. I'm moving up to the Heelans in a few weeks so I shall toughen up from a "soft lowland poof" to a Heelander in time. After a few weeks a 36Kt wind shall be but a breeze. 
aipolice - "Mair Wind Than Tommy Sheridan" - think that would require a bit more than 35KT. Perhaps should be reserved for severe winds only, e.g. >50KT.
Or perhaps heavy rain - "Mair Pish than Alex Salmond"

Actually is there a code for that crap that gets hurled off the sea. H'mm we would need a code for bits of seaweed and plastic rubbish.

Don't forget to add the colour state GREY to the METAR for most of the west coast.
Pas.

Kicking off some Thread drift
I wonder if the fence at Oban is to keep the Sheep from escaping.
I know it's been a wee while since we mentioned The Fence, but we are back on it now, or not, as it were.

Think I'll give the sheep a miss thanks. 
Is the fence still there? I noticed when I checked the NOTAMs the other day the NOTAM about the runway length wasn't on the system anymore.
