Peas & onions flattened, potatoes & strawberries shredded - hopefully they'll perk up again when (if?) we get better weather. Shrubs etc ok as it's been much colder here than usual & not grown very much yet!
Still very windy up northish, got about 8 nice aquilega down and quite a lot of new growth on a couple of Beech trees/hedge, other than that leaves and branches from surrounding trees. The bird feeders are taking a battering. Roll on summer.
It's stopped raining but seems to be getting windier here - the branches of the ash trees are waving around alarmingly and I've just been out to rescue some potted plants that were rolling around. 19.5C outside but I'm feeling really chilly and I've put the heating on for a little while
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Had to move coffin/planter to weigh down bamboo fence! Just in time! Red azalea blew out its pot and across the terrace, iris at 45 degrees, and that's not temperature!

A biggish branch is off the top oak (about 2 inch thick and 6ft long.)
Very windy still here. One rose is over,I need to tie it to the fence.
Some alliums flattened.
The rain stopped at lunchtime. Is it safe to go and dig yet?
Still howling in Kent and not too bl**dy warm either
Easing off but still windy, 20C
I'll check my damage tomorrow
In the sticks near Peterborough

No rain now and it's warmed up quite a bit. The wind has died down a little and luckily no damage that I can see.
