YAWN, YAWN, WAKEY, WAKEY - 2021

Just hope our greenhouse survives....the wind tends to be strong in our area anyway ..a wind tunnel!!

Even tonight at 9/ 10 pm is still around 50/ 51 mph!!





I want the rain ,the more the merrier but not the wind, especially at this time of year....our poor gardens.

 

Ho wow! Hope it doesn’t get too bad Upsydaisy I’ll be keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you, hoping my strawberry plants will do ok, they are very close to the house so hoping they will be a little sheltered

 

Apologises for barging in on the thread ( I am nosy sometimes and check in ) I noticed Flump and Upsy were asking about Verdun . From the last I heard last year he's doing fine happily tending to his garden and helping one of the neighbours out . I think he got a bit fed up dealing with arguments on various forums in the end unfortunately and called it quits.

I noticed you've moved Flumpy I know a while back actually but didn't realised you moved more this way . That wind farm looks very familiar .

 

Hi Perki lovely to see you, yes we moved middle of February, loving the garden and adding our own touches to it, yes we’ve moved nearer to my parents, and work but in a quieter area and off the main road now, Glad to hear Verdun is doing well, I first saw him on Gardeners world, he used to pull my legs saying it never rains or snows in Cornwall wall , hope he comes back, How are you?, do you live near Hebden Bridge? Your garden plants look lovely

 

Yes GW is where I first come across Verdun quite a while back now, hopefully he does pop back on the forum now and again.

I am fine as can be , I live in Rossendale the other side of that wind farm . I had quite a few winter walks over the hills and that wind farm , I put quite a lot of pictures on the forum a while back I'll tag you in them if want to look through them.

 

Ho yes please, I can see knowl Hill from our house and all the wind towers, my brother & dad love walks up there, in fact my dad broke his ankle once and my brother had to carry him to safety 2008, look forward to your pics

 

Hi there @Perki ...definitely not barging in, lovely to see you here

Ex GW here too

Oh I prefer your info on Verdun, I heard that he was dealing with family issues and it worried me that it might have involved his brother.
Whatever, we all miss him and wish him and the family well.

 

Hope everyone is well and survived the winds unscathed. We have still to check outside as its still blowing a hoolie out there. Will have a good look later when it will be safer ,not sure yet it that tree has lost its branch I hope it has as it's just waiting to happen and best now as the lane is very quiet at the moment .

Keep safe.

 

Good morning all, one of the Gazebo which has been slightly torn finally succumbed and ripped wide open last night. I was going to replace them this year anyway as they must be at least six years old.

Still having breathing problems, I think it might be due to panic attacks at least some of it because when it starts to cause me problems then I panic which makes it worse. Oh well have to see the doctor again soon so maybe we can get to the bottom of the problem.

Have a good day all, hope you didn't suffer too much damage. Take care and stay safe and well.
God bless.

 

Good morning all! Hope all your plants have survived the Gale, it’s still raining hard and very windy here, so far everything is still standing, the only thing that had moved was one of our bins, keep safe everyone
