Well, I came home (Ascot)last night from visiting my father in Birmingham (UK)to find our last beech tree which survived 1987 the gales is down, pulled out from the roots. Totalled my greenhouse, garden shed and contents and a length of fence (ours and 2 neighbours) fortunately no damage to houses but the rockery we put in in the spring is gone, too, it is now vertical. Off to contact insurance company and tree surgeons.
