Well, now it's Storm Franklin. It's been blowing a hooley again all night and even stronger this morning. My next-door neighbour's fence panels are lying on his lawn, smashed to bits. I've just ventured out and secured my trellis panel with strong wire (It was flapping wildly against my oil tank!). Some daft folk put their wheelie bins out last night, and rubbish is blowing all over the village. I'll wheel mine out nearer noon (The bin-men come at around 1pm. Hope they're staying safe!)I've got three bars of chocolate to give them (driver and two wheelers) to cheer them up, poor souls.
