IF YOU ARE someone who walks or cycles to work, you will undoubtedly have experienced some pretty strong wind this morning.

It’s the kind of wind that makes you feel like you could actually be blown away, Wicked Witch of the West style.

Clearly the wind makes getting around a bit tricky if you don’t have a car, but it can also result in some pretty magical moments.

Without the wind, we would never have had these beauties.
