    The steak with half price stickers on and correct price in my store-Northarbour Portsmouth has them all correct and I had a dam good look:o:(

    I used to pop in that store when DD1 was at uni there. ;)

    You must have been slacking one year as I found loads of 1p clipstrip chocolate, and loads of the 1p nuts OOD but they had gone back up to full price. :eek:

    Good afternoon :)

    Lunch break time from operation clean up.

    16 panes of greenhouse glass :( 1 bent beyond repair greenhouse frame :(. I found glass as far away as 20 ft from the greenhouse :eek::eek:.
    I broken shed window:(, 2 fence panels :(, more roof tiles than I can count :(:( and various other assorted damages :(. Nothing that can't be sorted.....eventually.
    As I thought Im struggling to get someone out for the roof so my poor OH has been up there to minimise further damage and make sure there's nothing that might fall on anyone's head :eek: Ive bodged greenhouse no.2 up as best as I can because I'll have to wait on glass for it.....glazier is also extremely busy.

    Hope everyone else is safe and doesn't have too much damage. I keep reminding myself we're still a whole lot better off than the poor people who's houses are flooded.
    Nothing that can not be replaced, just hassle and hopefully not too much cost :grouphug:
    Hope the trampoline survived or then you would have problems ;)

    On the twitter feed of our local newspaper last night lots of useful info was coming in from people in the area as to where trees had fallen blocking roads, which bits of our M6 section was shut, blocked or restricted and what was happening at our local train station which had to be evacuated as part of the roof was blown off.
    And inevitably one person from a very posh area complaining that the wind was blowing wheels bins over.
    As my OH said !!!!!! :rotfl:
    :rotfl: some people dont know how good they have it,

    oh and ds2 came home for lunch with disco full of wood:j he reckons he will get enough wood for the next few years:T
