We've had a little sunshine, and lots of cloud.

I know we need rain, but I'd much prefer it after dark, please!

I have just been outside, the polytunnel is bending out of shape and the bolt has failed on the door, one of Grahams tarpaulines had escaped so i tried to get it into the shed and i got pulled off my feet, the horizon is brown with the soil being blown off the fields, all my tree's in pots are scattered and the compost is off the tops, and the satellite signal keeps going. The screen around the deck has been ripped out too.

This is AWFUL

****** Hell Rosie

(sorry for swearing

)...you just take care of yourself.....its scary isn't it...I've been doing some paperwork in the conservatory...and the racket....creaking, rattling, banging.....horrible

....the wind is coming more from the south-southwest...and our back garden is a little bit sheltered that way....having said that the lilies in the pots are whipping about and the basket tree is over...it just missed a nice plant...phew!!
We've had a few heavy rain squalls but the sky is pretty clear here and the sun is shining.....

...gotta look on the bright side

Oh Rosie - Take care - it sounds like you are having it really bad

I was just going to moan that it is very windy here and that I wasn't going in the garden as getting blown about makes me bad tempered - after hearing what Rosie is putting up with I am not moaning!

I love my greenhouses!

Graham will probably fix it even stronger than it was before today because the weak points will show up.
