How to Deal with Strong Winds and Get a Good Nights Sleep

SANTRY, Ireland - April 18, 2013 - PRLog -- With wind speeds gusting at 52 Knots (60MPH) in Ireland yesterday many people may have encountered sleepless nights around the country. Others might have slept like a baby but were greeted with some unsavory eyesore when they awoke this morning and looked out the window.

According to Colm Griffin of Purchase.ie, a 2012 Green Awards Finalist "Many people might be asking themselves three questions at the moment

1: How do I stop that wheelie bin lid from banging all night?

2: How do I stop the bin from capsizing in the wind and spreading litter everywhere?

3: How do I stop that loud whistling noise emanating from the chimney when its windy?"
