    Some of my pots have been blown over, and the fleece I've put over some pots has been half - blown away. Other than that no damage!

      yep- had a good look round and all seems fine -thanks!

      I do worry about our old roof as it's just slates on the rafters- no liner - and the bedrooms are in the attic space so we don't know if we have a leak until it's dripping through the sloping walls( newly painted my my own fair hands!!)

        one of my kale plants fell over, but I have re-earthed it up.
        I am hoping all the slates are still on the roof.

          Bird cowl down off the chimney but it's a low one so it should go back on without too much difficulty, caught it blowing around the lawn.
          Next door has a disused stable block which is gradually falling down, it was quite a bit more down this morning!

                    Three blowaways blew away. Salvaged some bits, but not re-erecting until the spring. Happily they were empty. I would have been devastated if they had been full of plants.

                      One of my birdhouses had taken off but I found it down the garden & a wicker plant wigwam had blown under the trees, few pots blown over & loads of rubbish blown into the front garden but other than that we seem to have escaped, still very windy though but not as bad as last night, I thought we'd wake up with no fence!

                        My blow away fell over for the second time in as many weeks, in my back garden, it was tied to the fence but the string broke and I didnt tie it back. It only has empty pots in waiting to go in the proper greenhouse at the lottie. Been over their today and everything fine.

                          I very gingerly pulled back the curtains this morning, expecting the new greenhouse to be gone!! It is a polycarb one, but hey! no damage at all. Sooo glad we had a heavy wooden floor fitted, and mounted on a good base, phew what a relief.

                              Not been on my plots yet (tomorrow hopefully) as I've been busy this week but I've had to pick a lot of plastic plant pots up that had got blown all over the back yard and my tower of blue plastic mushroom boxes had gone over,so I guess I got of lightly really....

                                No probs here, even the blowaway still standing ! ( maybe as it has 20 bricks on the bottom shelf
