Everything is being battered

It seems to happen every year at this time. Everything in the garden and on the plot is planted out and settled in and looking lovely.  Then as soon as the cardoons have developed flower spikes we know what comes next - gale force winds.

Everything now, both in the garden and at the allotment is being battered. Our allotment site is like a wind tunnel. It has been known for sheds to be upended which is why our shed is fastened to fence posts set firmly in the ground.

Anyone who, like me, wears contact lenses will know that the wind is not a friend.

We just hope that once the winds die down - as surely they must - things will recover.
