Such a shame Lissie
We're very fortunate as these gardens are all walled, it breaks the wind up a bit - although I could hear the neighbours over the back of us both out early, they obviously have a fair bit of damage but I can't see that. Will no doubt see them later.
We'd moved all the pots etc a couple of weeks ago when it was bad, and put the ones we could lift into the shed. None of our trees are big enough yet to cause damage. I'm ever so glad we got the new shed last year, that old one would have been blown to kingdom come!
Very pleased to hear the travellers have finally arrived at least to this country.
