Gosh, John, hope you don't lose any more slates from the roof!

Blimey, we seem to have a 'storm of the century' at least once a year.

That's climate change for you - and now the storms even have names!

It appears I have lost two slates from the roof, someone is coming tomorrow to replace them. We have had some torrential rain this afternoon but none has come through so I can count myself lucky.

But now we give them names just to show that we appreciate them!

Sadly this is true.

Our garden fences have taken a battering in recent days, but fortunately they are still standing. I'm sorry to hear about your roof, John.

Thanks, Eddie. The slates that came off were above the bedroom I converted into a library, naturally I was worried about any rain getting through and on to my books but the roofer has done his job and all is well.

Glad to hear that the roofer has done his job well and that all his well, John.

We always notice how windier it is on the coast - a 'blow' is very rare in Guildford. I seem to remember your fence being damaged before, Eddie. Glad it wasn't damaged by the latest storm.

Thank you, Francis.

Shocked to see the dreadful floods in Cumbria and Lancashire, hope all are safe and well.
