Just had a single giant gust of wind pass through on what is otherwise a very still day. It ripped the lid off a storage box I have outside and sent my fly trap flying. The trap broke open, freeing flies, larvae and the most awful stench imaginable. Mr Woof thought it was great and tried to roll in it. I am much less pleased with it, and its right next to the clothes line and I now don't want to hang up my washing.
