So it was windy yesterday...

Windows fall from Chelsea Stratus

Orange flags were hanging where the window panes had been, mostly on terraces.

Vive la France!

I thought we dispensed with the guillotine!

Blades of glass shearing, I shudder to think of what,
on the streets below......b-r-r-r-r-r .....a cold though!

I'm glad I live in a borough of predominantly
better built low rise buildings.

From now on when
"A WIND ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT",
I plan on shunning Manhattan's newly built towers!

I'd advise all tourists to follow my example!

Tumbling cranes, building collapses,
threats of terrorism, now falling glass!

How are our sister cities
around the world doing in the safety department
compared to us?

Is Paris, Rome or London safer?

If so, I'd rather take my vacation there!

I'd rather vacation in the good ole USA. Even President Sarkozy of France summered at Lake Winnepesaukee in New Hampshire last year.

Vive les Etats-Unis!

Just being sarcastic George.
I prefer to eat my escargot in the USA
and dispense with having to deal
with those nasal sounding Parisian snots!

H-m-m-m.....
can't afford their rip-off hotel rates either.

But I'm going to wear a steel battle helmet
on windy days in NYC.
