Still blowing hard out there, but slightly less than this morning perhaps? The greenhouse roof panel did slip down, but has now wedged itself in the guttering rim, so less likely to actually flip out. Will sort out over vw/end, when less windy, I hope.
Intermittent sunshine, but quite a lot of dark clouds around too. About 8-9C outside at the mo. J.
Rosa Carriola, how about 'guy ropes' as on a tent; attach several to tree and then attach to rim of pot It is very blowy in the Fens, hope it dies down soon.
That's good Bjay. Fingers crossed it stays that way.
I ended up blocking the wormery cover with a wheely bin pushed right up to it. The 'lip' of the bin lid being over the piece of polycarbonate panel, that, despite a brick on top of it, was regularly flipping off!
Did I say the wind was less? Noooooo, back again. J.
Been a bright but windy day, quite spring like, plenty of snowdrops now appearing, and some crocus showing colour Days are lengthening, still light at 4.50pm.

Haven't poked my nose outside yet, but a cloudy sky and less wind. Should reach 7c later, so the weather caption says
