I know that this place is called "Windy Wellington", but for goodness sake! It's gusting up to 45 knots [over 80km/hr] on the ground, raining and I can't see any blue sky. The only difference between today and mid-winter is that it's about twice the temperature [around 11 degrees celsius!] of a mid-winter storm.
Darn!
Oh well, here's something a little special. An old video of part of an interview with an old Boeing 707 test pilot, Tex Johnson, commenting on why he rolled a prototype Boeing 707 in front of prospective customers... I'd like to see someone get away with this these days! :-)

Thanks for the fun : )
(Sorry so blustery your way! Hope the "windiness and wild" dies down!) : )
Ok, just watched the Concorde video too....That is just CRAZY COOL STUFF!!!!!!! What a hoot!
Glad you liked it Hindsfeet. As for the weather, not sure when it is going to get better... probably just in time for winter to settle in :-( ha ha
Sounds like you need a "summer" house on THIS side of the pond!! ; )
