Yeah we have shut a number of sites down - esp in light of the fatality this am in Dandenong... some of our subbies where out there, not pretty

I have had to thread a box between the front door handles to keeo it shut as the wind was sucking the door open to then change it's mind and blow is shut trying to break all the glass at the same time....

ARGH

yeah - we had window cleaners coming today to clean the high windows at our house on ladders, then the flyscreen people coming to fit the new screens. both cancelled. not a good idea being up on a ladder today - especially as our place is right on top of ruckers hill - so get's massive winds hitting it.
