It's a big Hole!

Post by Don Coffey » Thu Dec 05, 2013 5:01 pm

Came home to find one of the outbuildings (the one I use for tools and garden equipment) has a large hole in the roof as the wind has peeled a large section away.  The building is over 150 years old and although the tiles aren't original the wood is so I suppose it's had a good innings.  Roofer has advised a complete new roof. 

Anyone else affected by today's weather?

Got away with it this time, but previous storms have taken the fences down and left the felt from my large shed two gardens away.

Hope everyone else is safe.. :)

I managed to lose the felt off a shed roof so not too costly like that sounds. Luckily don't get to much bad weather being in the South.

There are some 'interesting' videos of aircraft trying to land in these err challenging winds.... :drive:

They should have been helicopter pilots, not constrained by a strip of Tarmac.
