I've fallen off the back!

Not too cold for me at the moment, but too chuffing windy! UK doesn't really get silly cold much. However my part of the UK seems to have had strong winds for the last month and I really can't face commuting in it. In the winter I only commute once a week anyway, its 18 miles each way into the prevailing wind in the morning and at the moment I just can't be bothered battling it for over an hour to get to work. At least when I run its a loop so I only run into the wind for part of it, if I'm commuting I'm into the wind for the whole time with no let up. I didn't commute yesterday and I'm really glad I didn't - massive wind gusts and it absolutely lashed in the evening. Its only 25mph wind today, feels positively still!

I don't do icy conditions either - broke my fingers one year skidding on black ice on the way into work. Thankfully ice is rare, especially for my current commute which heads to the coast (hence windy all the time).
