Did anybody have any storm damage last night?
The weather forecast had said we should expect some thunderstorms, so I knew I would have to keep my cats calm. They seemed to settle but lashings of rain & some wind did disturb my night.I thought I had got off lightly until I went into the garden this morning!
..... I found a large elder tree ( about 17 feet high) lying on my garden.Not what you expect to find in the middle of June, is it?

If the birds drop seeds I often find new trees growing so, if they are in a convenient spot, I haven't the heart to cut them down.
Looks like the storm didn't have a heart when it knocked this one down!

Elder trees thrive here, so perhaps I should make some elder flower wine!
