See speed kills.
Now if the wind had not been recklessly speeding this entirely avoidable accident could have been avoided entirely.
In future the mean wind speed for Cumbria will be set at a moderate (to fresh) 30 mph. Any gusts recklessley exceeding this limit will be photographed and a NIP will be served on the owner of the wind direction responsible. Under a totting up procedure, administered by Cumbria Cotton Wool Wrapping partnership, any wind direction owner responsible for such irresponsible us of irresponsibly reckless wind speeds will receive a ban lasting 12 weeks, or 84 days if the owner pleads guilty and travels to Cumbria to witness his recklessness ,captured on film, at his own expense.
The month of March will be banned in Cumbria as it is traditionally known to be excessively reckless and irresponsible in the use of irresponsibly, excessive reckless wind speeds above the agreed mean.
It is anticipated from statistical analysis that following 12 months of enforcement, no wind speeds of above 30mph will endanger the county of Cumbria in the future.
CCWW-Making the people of Cumbria feel safe secure and slightly confused.

The Jocks have started building the barricades then, A1 next perhaps?
We've secretely started the restoration of Hadrian's wall, complete with southerly facing infra red remote control rapid fire machine guns programmed to fire on anyone without a Celtic DNA marker in their blood.
That way we should manage to eradicate all Sassenach impurities from our glorious nation.
FREEDOM!!!!

Unfortunately Tony B Liar has abolished half your army, after they've barely stepped off the plane after sorting out his mess in Iraq. What a nice man he is.

Yes, and recent polls suggest that all the lies, BS, spin and general cr@p we've had to put up with matters not, he'd get back in again. Who the hell is voting for him? Closet voters I think.

Smooth as snakeshit !!
that's my wife
Er.... have you stumbled across her big sister yet Lycra is smoking somewhere 
Anyway .. had my hot buttered crumpets over Christmas....hid the sparklies in the remote control police car
And I made sure the the BiB driver had blond hair and strategically clipped one of the sparkly ear-rings to one of his ears.... she was speechless for once! 
And what did she give me, crumpets apart? ... Copy of the HC - her old one.
And I am the Papa of an child in Africa -I get around 
(adopted an orphan apparently) It seems I have also adopted some animal or other as well over there.....

Er! This er animal! It....it's not called: Geraldis it?
Nein Liebchen! It was a toss up between Gerald und Edward
But Ted ist really an "Edward" und somehow this animal looks a bit like him from the photo His face was a picture ... und when I told him about the orphaned kitten as well.. you could see him reckoning up the bills of school and uni fees
He went a bit pale ... had no choice but give him lots of hot buttery crumpets to make up... und Dibbles ... we now have answer to that riddle as to which side I would land on.... Still he should not have bought me a remote control police car, replica of my car and a toy talivan - even though he stashed my sparklies in SWAG bag inside it.
By the way .. A74 ist still open und nothing serious happened ....despite Steviebabe's Christmas huntings

Towman Liebchen! That ist one of nicest things you have said to me!
Und pentoman ...Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I do indeed wear black lacy stockings und silky doo-dahs which slither off me.
Und I type as I talk .. but this ist because am on metrnity leave und no-one ist around to correct my bad English spellings. But have enjoyed a lovely Christmas ...und decided to have a sip of brandy ... und got a bit frisky und merry as result! Und tonight ... had glass of wine mit dinner. White wine und G0-Cat ... not a good combinations.
