Yukk - it's so dispiriting that sort of thing. Ours is a heavy glass one but we once forgot to close the window and a wind whipped it up and over, smashed the window and bent the frame. We had to get a new window unit. Not as bad as yours though. Sympathy won't help but it's all I've got.

Bum
Will insurance cover it? Don't give up, different spot next time or a well anchored poly-tunnel?

My sympathies S55. I had one that went like that! Watch out for the glass, I'm still digging out bits, six years later.

Strewth, KK - bit exposed, that corner!
 Well, struggling for a bright side - at least you didn't have it all planted up.

Ahhh thats a bit grim S55 - obviously what you need for where you live is a brick and glass one, you better treat yourself!
 What sort do your neighbours have, so you could get similar?

Sad Scarry, but if you didn't want one anyway..............................
Lost the top of my cold frame this morning, it was fixed down but obviously not securely enough It was broken but managed to fix it enough for the time being, got drowned though. No Plants lost thank goodness will just have to repair it when the weather calms down.

Well, none of the plastic glass is at all damaged - only the frame is thoroughly trashed. I reckon I can do a half decent cold frame and incorporate some into the solar fruit drier I am working towards making. I can also possibly fabricate a lean-to half greenhouse on a SW facing wall.
Now, what can I do with a load of twisted, buckled aluminium - I know; I could stick it together, give it a fancy name, ship it to England and win a major art prize with it! KK

When you were choosing the greenhouse you never wanted it is a good job you did not want a bigger one or you would have had a bigger mess still
