Has anyone had any wind damage over night, I cant believe how much the wind picked up yesterday. My obelisk was blown over. I think the plant on it is OK, but the obelisk is in pieces, I think i can cobble it back together, I may have to shorten it tho.

We had very strong to Gale force winds last night I thought all my Pots and containers would be all over the place. Hope you get your obelix fixed up even though it might be shorter. It is quite calm now, the sun is shining and seems like a lovely Spring day! What a difference a few hours makes!

I could hear the fence on the one side last night, it was still fairly dark when I came out but I couldn't see into the neighbour's house so it was still standing if somewhat rickety! We know that it needs replacing, not helped by the fact that the two boys play football against it! They have nothing in their garden either except goal posts!
Hope you are able to repair your obelisk emsey.

No damage, but loads of leaves have appreared in the garden overnight - I don't know where they came from because the trees have been bare for weeks

Yesn and I have discovered a heap this morning the funny thing is though!! they are right beside the compost bin! so thats alright! my greenhouse door was wide open so Ive wedged a cane to stop it opening to-night. It was like Withering Heights here last night the wind was howling all around us.

Well, again it was howling last night - I'm amazed our one fence hasn't gone, it's almost there, but the one gate has blown back and smashed a large-ish terracotta pot!

The wind was howling again last night--I was cold in bed just listening to it! Hope others haven't had much wind damage especially those with structures in the garden and Greenhouses--Bigs
