In Search of Marvels on a Blustery day

 id=It's another rainy day with winds howling at 52 km/hour and I'm seriously considering enlisting the aid of some Marvel Comic superhero to get rid of this freaking Levanter wind. Surely one of them - Wind Warrior? - has the superhuman power to destroy or at least divert this "strong easterly wind of the Mediterranean, especially in the Strait of Gibraltar, attended by cloudy, foggy, and sometimes rainy weather especially in winter".

And incapacitated by a Mighty Headache (thanks to  id=the barometric pressure which has been going up and down for the past 3 weeks like my self-esteem), I cannot find the will to blog today. I'm seriously considering enlisting the aid of some Marvel Comic superhero to get rid of this incessant wind-driven pounding in my head. Surely one of them - Hammerhead? - has the superhuman power to destroy or at least divert this Mighty Headache.

So in place of my normal wit and erudition, I offer you the opportunity to discover your Peculiar Aristocratic Title. Marvel at mine! I trust that you will all be jealous.

My Peculiar Aristocratic Title is:
Baroness La Gatita the Ceaseless of Midhoop St Giggleswich
Get your Peculiar Aristocratic Title

Actually, Hammerhead is a villan but if he can cure your headache and mine, he's a superhero in my eyes.

Lord Senor Gato Gringo the Eerie of Chignall Duntisbourne

The Baroness La Gatita the Ceaseless of Midhoop St Giggleswich thanks you humbly for this correction. The error was undoubtedly caused by my Mighty Headache.

Her Noble Excellency Catherine the Fortunate of Throcking by Hampton deigns to point out that it doesn't matter how freaking windy it is if you're basking in 15C temps. Have I mentioned how many snowstorms we've had in February? The freezing rain earlier this week was pleasant while it lasted, but then the thermometer plunged to -12C again.
We are not amused.

Countess Anne the Ceaseless of Snotting on Wold extends her sympathies for your current plight.

Very jealous, although as a kiwi, I'm not sure I could lay claim to the title verbally without falling about laughing.

Lady Di the Ineffable of Helions Bumpstead

I had to check up on ineffable:
-not to be spoken because of its sacredness; unutterable: the ineffable name of the deity.
