    Couple of slates off the roof that have broken a panel on my back door.

    Mother Nature knows no boundaries...
    Don't risk going out tonight pal, just wait till tomorrow and hopefully it will have calmed down and you can close it then. Get some rest

    Our garage roof has been hanging on by a thread. .... since about 2010.
    Still not budged. Made a token effort of flapping about a bit, but looks like we will have to pay for it to be taken down. Gutting.

    3 x fence panels. 2 of which are the neighbours responsibility (he'd put em in last year with 1 nail each side. No surprise they came down). The 1 that is my responsibility has been looking sorry for itself since the last bout of wind.

    At least 2 roof slates too. Oh and my meerkat garden solar light thingymabob fell over.
