Since the wee small hours of the morn, my house has been pelted by horsechestnuts. The wind has been blowing pretty much non-stop for about 12 hours and it's sending horsechestunts every which way. On the positive side, the more that come down now, the fewer there will be to clean up later. The down side, of course, is all the crap that will need cleaning up once the wind has blown itself out.
