    so.... what's gone???

    ...in the winds

    We lost the roof felt off the plot Shed and two fence panels in the garden. Plus my brassica cages have collapsed.

    Nothing thankfully, although I had a pane of glass blow out. Glad it's toughened!

      Just been to plot and thankfully everything in tact, sadly the wind didn't blow my rubbish and weeds away

        We have a large type wheely bin which travelled 200yards down the road. My fish pond is overflowing apart from that nothing disasterous.

            Lid of the water butt has gone AWOL.

            Watch out for more wind (and not the brussels sprouts type) later in the week.

              Front downpipe (plastic - in total about 3.5 meters long) split top bracket, tore out rusted screws from rotten wood and landed on lawn. Only broken parts were the brackets. Spend 3 hours sourcing new brackets** (Wickes), putting up ladders and putting on new brackets in freshly drilled holes in stone work, removing rotten wood inserts in stonework and filling the holes with mortar. And removing and putting away ladders.

              I hate heights.

              ** two trips: first lot had missing parts!

                Luckily we've had no damage just a few things blown across the garden, I thought we'd get the felt of next doors shed but there's still a couple of nails holding it in place.

                  I've lost a couple of sheets of glass that were stacked against the shed, but that's all. I'll have a bit of a clear up on Boxing Day, weather permitting.

                      Door ripped off Norfolk plastic greenhouse - but all the rest is ok, door blown open on glasshouse but miraculously no glass damage Phew!

                      Couldn't get to plot because of flooded paths/roads so couldn't check the shed, or pick my xmas veg

                        I had the door blown off my B&Q greenhouse a couple of years ago, not been down to the plot today but have survived okay so far this year.

                          My greenhouses were fine but the winds uprooted an old large pear tree that always produces masses of pears . It was only last night that my OH commented that we were running out of fire wood so its now logged and stacked.

                            Wasn't in the best of repair to begin with.

                              One ex-greenhouse



                              Tumbled across three plots shedding parts before coming to rest by side of my greenhouse, cracking one pane.
