Sadly a chap living in a village near me was killed on Sunday when a tree fell on his car on the A33

A few fence panels blown through here (probably due for a replacement anyway) but Mrs. DW's pride and joy Vespa blown over, not too much damage and it missed my pride and joy MG by inches! All in all the DW household has been quite lucky!!

I have to park under a cherry tree on our close. I moved the car on the night of the storm hoping the wind would blow the tree over, but the bloody thing is still standing.

Ha - Geoffprinter I feel your pain! There's a very large free-standing leylandii and a scraggy wildly overgrown leylandii hedge which is really trees, in the garden behind me - bloke who owns the house is hardly ever there and it's not between him and the sun, so he's not bothered. I've trimmed back the scraggies as much as I can, but from autumn to spring they drastically reduce sunlight into my garden. I could live with the scraggies if the biggie would kindly keel over! Snag is, it would keel over onto an adjacent bungalow, and the people there really don't deserve that.

We had a close escape yesterday while driving back from Eastbourne to Seaford. We were behind a bus on the hill leading up from East Dean when a tree fell right in front of the bus, just grazing it, and completely blocking the road. The bus driver was a bit shaken but no-one was hurt. It caused traffic chaos, however. We were able to turn the car round and found an alternative, longer route home.

Meanwhile back in Seaford the huge waves undermined and broke up a concrete walkway at Splash Point and it will be closed for ages until it can be rebuilt. The beach is covered in thousands of shells, cuttle fish bones, piles of seaweed and flotsam. The power of the sea is amazing and quite scary.
