storm force winds here

18 Apr 2013 - 4 comments | Translate title into English

Last night the wind howled. A force 8 gale roared in soon to be a strong gale 9 with winds of 55 mph.These are nowhere near as strong as some of you witness but strong enough to be slightly worrying. The cats wanted out so I obliged. Sooty came back in 15 minutes complaining,he really didn't like it/ Zazzles on the other hand completely ignored it and came wandering back after an hour or so had some biscuits and a drink and wandered off for another hour or so before settling for the night/

I am a watering can light having lost mine to the overnight storm but I have gained a plastic bucket and a piece of my neighbour's green house.
It is still unpleasantly windy so I haven't be out to check on the rest of the garden yet although I notice the daffodils have survived,they are at an angle but that's no big deal.

Fact of the day
Aulophobia is the fear of flutes.

Interesting fact, if that Musical flutes, or French bread ? lol.

Oh, in case you wonder, I had to upload all the Shinkansen photos again, a glitch in the "Organizer" deleted them all.

GLad there's no damage to speak of.. Thats one good way to air the house out if you'd like though.. .. Blows straight through!

Well look on the bright side, you might be short of a watering can, but the bucket you've gained would sort of take its place!!! As for the extra bit of greenhouse, could you make it into a cold frame? LOL Very windy here too, but I only lost my peg basket, luckily empty, and a few pots fell over complete with the flowers in them.
