Re: Any wind damage today?

We were lucky here, very windy during the night but luckily no damage. Sorry to hear that some of you have had problems.

No damage anywhere here. My new polytunnel survived. The one on the allotment and the greenhouse were OK when I looked yesterday morning. I'll take a ride there later to see if all is well.

2020 seems to be a windy year for everyone Bruce, but 14*C is our summer.....

Our umbrella broke. I'm not going to fix it until the wind dies down somewhat.

No wind damage except my flares buffered a bit. Beans again!

Next doors 15' bamboo was draped over my shed roof, I told them and they cut it back straight away. (I think I'm getting a reputation around here)

I don't wear flares, but I do have a similar problem depending on what I've been eating.
Like you, beans are a frequent culprit.

You were lucky with polytunnels Mart.
You must have installed them really well. Glad all's safe.

Still blustery here today so far.
I have been out trying to salvage my battered Dahlias.

It's a good job I wasn't wearing harem pants! I could've floated away, upside-down!
