Lesley - when I lived round the corner from here, I had two mature trees in the front garden. Because of the wind direction, the leaves often got blown straight off the trees and down the road so I got a much smaller haul on those occasions for my leaf bins!
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Verdin, I think many of us have had same experience.
What have you lost Fairy? What is this about a hurricane?
High winds here, very noisy with all the trees. I was the delegated driver last night from party 15 miles away. I think we could have flown home the wind was at my back phew

Lovely sunny, dry but windy day. Nursing a very sore finger today, trapped it in the new bifold sliding patio door posh thing yesterday. So sore it made me cry! Not known to be a wuss normally! Can't bend it, kills like heck if i try to use it. Not helped by also nursing a hangover.
Well, the sky is blue so there's another load of washing blowing energetically on the line, and I'm pleased to report that the woodpigeons do not appear to have spotted the cabbage plants yet. I've been keeping them away from the broccoli by sticking some sparkly seaside windmills amongst them - I could do with getting some more.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

Poor you! ((hugs)) You obviously need a hair of the dog!

oh no Mrs G, sounds like its bosted, probably very little you can do for it, maybe tape it to the next one? might help the pain if nowt else, hope it feels better soon

Good morning
A wet and windy start to the day here too
I'm hoping that all the leaves will move to the bottom of the garden in a nice, neat pile.
Glad your niece was unditched Verdun. You'll have to have a power nap this afternoon
KEF you'll have to buy a new mirror
Think I will too
Will try to catch up later - there's a queue for the computer

LP - I've not lost anything - apart from my marbles perhaps
The tail end of a hurricane is coming across the pond and arriving here early in the week, so get into the lea of that nice wall you have

Oh so glad its only marbles, I used to have sone too!
since posting I have had a call from a pal out driving apparently it's really wild out there.
off to batten down the hatches and hope another part if the wall doesn't fall down
Stay safe everyone
