Day 14: Constructicons, weather and scaredy cats

So just to continue the 'amazing sexy constructicon construction equipment' theme - some of THESE machines are truly incredible.

All this lot should have been in at least one TF episode somewhere - especially that spiderbot! How cute XD And the crane ... *flails...* Maybe this IS Scrapper and co - they got upgrades :) Except the spider - he's a blow-in.

It rained all day today on and off, with really high winds. From the office I watched part of a roof come adrift, and a large gate swing open and nearly bash a car - so it shows how careful we have to be when this sort of weather suddenly hits. I think people get complacent when its dry for long spells.

I couldn't wait to get home and putter about in the garden, which is very happy now. I transplanted about five cape gooseberries and they should get off to a good start.

Meanwhile, poor kitteh isn't impressed. He keeps looking angrily at the great outdoors like 'how DARE it be like this?' And he hides in a cupboard when the rain gets heavy or thunder threatens - dunno why, because he grew up in the north where there were storms all the time!

LOL I can understand why they might be found scary. They are so BIG and we are so puny and defenseless by comparison. When accidents happen with this kind of equipment, they tend to be fatal. I find those assembly lines in factories with acid baths etc pretty freaky.

I guess some of my awestruckness with these machines is their sheer power. I find them sexy (I don't know what that says about me!)

Weather's still blowy here but that high wind and rain (which I love also) has gone :/
