Saul Posted Friday at 17:08 Share Posted Friday at 17:08 Bloody 120 mph wind gust wrecking havoc all over the Duchy. Trees down everywhere, RTA’s, roads closed. Lifeboats, coastguards and all the other services on the go all night. 53,000 homes blacked out. Worst of all for me pealed the roof off my bike she which was new this year. Tore the doors off my big shed and blew the sides out of my recycling bag store. At one point we had a tin can twister flying around the garden . Managed to trigg it up today hopefully good enough for overnight so I can get on with fixing it properly tomorrow. Guess the Triumph Carb rebuild is on hold until the shed is secured. Bikes all untouched I couldn’t get to much today as Shadow had a hospital appointment and I had to take the Mr’s down to RCHT Hospital in Truro to see her 94 year mum who is in with. Flu I have everything crossed she comes out again, my Mother in Law is a gem. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nute Posted Friday at 21:50 Share Posted Friday at 21:50 It was v windy here, no damage thankfully, tree branches all over the place a week after I'd cleared up the last lot. Water seems to have got into two security lights as they are now stuck on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only got 3" last night? You should speak to @Vamana Gupta, he always gets at least 12". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saul Posted 13 hours ago Author Share Posted 13 hours ago First time it years the doors are lockable on my big shed where the Hornet lives. Spent all morning repairing and re hanging the doors that Gerotti broke. To be honest I enjoy a bit of wood work or wood butchering in this case. The best bit is that it never cost a penny. Coat of red stain on the next dry day and all will be good. The roof on the bike shed is next. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
