Dealing with the Wind in Ireland Dealing-with-the-wind

With wind speeds gusting at 52 Knots (60MPH) in Ireland yesterday I’m sure there was quite a few people had sleepless nights around the country. Others might have slept like a baby but were greeted with some unsavory eyesore when they awoke this morning and looked out the window.

Was the wheelie bin lid banging open and shut all night?

Was a loud whistling noise emanating from the chimney?

Did you look out the window this morning only to see that your garden got decorated overnight due to the wheel bin falling over and litter spreading everywhere?

Bob Dylan might suggest that the “Answer is blowing in the Wind” but we got a few solutions of our own to counter the wind and help you sleep better.
