    Morning jan,I hope the panel isnt to badly damaged.
    we had all the fencing come down about 3yrs back & it was a nightmare. We couldnt let the dog out there as he runs off & housing **** took weeks to come put it back up. thats what i was worried about.it was the fencing all round the park & had nails all facing up, anyone could have trod on them.
    The shed roof came off too & me & OH had to pull it back on & drive 6 inch nails into it. Would have distroyed our 2 cars plus 2 company cars if it had blown off completely.That was hell of a job battling against the wind.
    Weve been luck so far this year & the garden room is still standing too :D was worried the panels would blow out but we must have sealed that well :D
    You get a good sleep today jan & hope the winds died down a bit there for you.

    A real quick hello from Keilder Forest just to let you know that we are still alive and safe and sound.. Found the mother in law at seven oclock clinging to a pine tree, she had slept soundly apparently... Lol
    We're having a bit of breakfast, packing up and cleaning the lodge then we're setting off to Rothbury..
    It's still quite wild out here so I will be taking it very steady on the roads.. I'm sure there must be at least a few trees down up here, there are around 10 million or something..


    Be safe and well everyone,

    Tony

    Hi Toni, Debs, Coco and all

    Sorry only read this page cus the glare it getting to me just now.

    Hope everyone is ok and Debs glad the room too it... I have yet to walk down to see whats happened to the bottom shed..... Its not up here though... I do have a missing horse to go find and the trees haven't gone into the road .... :lol::lol: The horse obviously has :roll:

    Hugs by the door for all. Cris xx

    Hi Del,

    See if you can get some trigger point steroid jabs... they do help a bit. Botox actually has really knocked mine back quite a bit.... Are you under a pain clinic, though knowing you I have to say not literally :wink:

    Hope you get some relief and I can do you all a decent mushroom and cheese omelette if it helps? ((( ))) and a hope Cris xx

    Hi Del

    thank you for the quotation - I am no longer stressed

    Hi Cris

    The colour is back blue :D

    Hi Jan

    it's supposed to be Rt as you look out from the house into the backgarden, but the deeds are what you reaklly must check :(

    We are v unlucky as we have the rt and the left being at the end and being the last house built the bottom too! and it runs across3 and a half gardens :shock:

    Luckily every one of them is still UP :D

    LOve

    Hi Del,

    Recon eggs and chips would go down well :wink:

    The steroid jabs work on the muscles on me reasonably well but the botox is better..... just a shame it couldn't be a muscle in my face :wink:

    I also got years of NSAIDs related or crohn's related ulcers and stuff so sympathize for you there as well. You want a manky egg and chis or a cuppa? :lol: xx

    Hi Jan,

    As ever Owns went walk about.... she is a heller! I went the wrong way trogged miles and she was 3 fields down the opposite way... she did have the decency to neigh at me and be waiting by the gate so it saved her an ear bashing but I's doing an impersonation of a drowned rat so actually going to hit the embers to get dry!

    Hope you can get a bit more rest and primmy aid she is not leaving here..... but soon they must and in Owns case tomorrow will do :lol::lol: ((( ))) and get some more rest! xx

    Hi Toni,
    Started the free the held p,m's movement today... want to join :wink: (((( )))) xx

    Oh Toni mine is still glary white and black with more glare...... odd eh? Do you think they hate me that much?! :roll:

    Toni :D:D:D:D Less glare! xxx

    Hi Barbara,

    Its turned better colours again.... mine didn't but did when I refreshed it.

    Hope you haven't got too much damage there? Fences I think it used to be marked on the deeds as to who owns what... Its one mine but its kinda different here...... The adjoining fields we take responsibility for the side we have as a border but again the hedges are special and really drystone walls covered in earth and trees... I wonder why we do that?!

    Hope your ok and off to get cleaned up and dry. (((( )))) and a hope Cris xx

    Cris, I don't manage to catch up with you much these days, it's all these flaming horses going walkabout!

    I know you're in a rough patch petal and, like everyone else here, wish I could give some practical help (hang on, I'll just nip down and hobble those horses).

    A B I G bar of life's necessity winging its way to you, don't eat it all at once. Give Rowan a couple of squares.

    Ok, if you and Joan are still around, I'll have a builders and some coffee cake (I'm sure it was mentioned somewhere) and sit awhile.

    Love to you Joan, and sister Sue. Hope you are keeping dry and warm.
