Heard the storms this morning and looked out the window to see carnage.
Next doors fence is down and there's tiles missing from the house down the road.

Did you survive or get damaged?

It was a case of dodge the wheely bin when I went to work at 4.30am but no damage and debris on the roads otherwise. We have lost some garden ornaments but could have been a whole lot worse. And there were still 3 or 4 bikes on the road early doors.....

Not my birthday until November and not much chance then.

Had a couple of tiles off they fell on the grass and didn’t break

Lost a ridge tile that landed on next doors roof and smashed a few of their tiles but otherwise all okay.
The odd wheelie bin or tub in the road at 5.15 am but it was not too bad then.

I have one ridge tile that has moved but not yet fallen off spent most of the weekending getting a ladder high enough so I could get help with fixing it.

No wind damage here in Cornwall for us

Fence got tired and needed a lay down.

But wanted refreshing as already repaired twice before.

Same here and still in the process of repairing.

Not content with destroying six fencing panels recently, on Saturday night the tv aerial blew down; just in time to stop me recording the Indonesian MotoGP - perfect effin' timing! .

Amazing that the wind was that strong that it was able to grab hold of a thin pole.
Still trying to sort my bit of fencing that's still lying down.
