Making us smile today...

Hens in hamper hiding from St Jude storm
More than 22,000 homes are without power and milions of communters have been left stranded as St Jude storm hits Britain. Winds of 99mph have lashed the south of the UK overnight and this morning.

But amidst the chaos, this picture has made us smile. Kate Johnson, a reader of The Lady, sent us these photos this morning of her six bantam hens hiding in a Fortnum & Mason hamper last night, to keep them safe from the wind. They loved it, she revealed.
