"Does anyone else love wild weather like this? Our house is taking a fair battering but I love the sound of it I usually listen to storm sounds to help me drift off but the real thing is better, especially when you're all snuggled up in bed. Are you getting a pounding from this storm? " Lucky you, getting a pounding Its a bit windy up here, but not as bad as you have it. | |||

"Tonight's isn't too bad but last night was a bit rough. Nothing compared to Storm Arwen though,that was quite scary. Winds in excess of 100mph and it felt the whole house was shaking. Serves me right for living high upon an exposed hill top." Was that the one late November last year? If so we had quite abit of damage from that too. It does get abit tense when the high winds start to sound expensive | |||

"I only wish I was back home by the sea...love hearing the crashing waves as well as the wind." Where abouts were you when you lived by the sea? We absolutely love having a drive up the coast through Blackpool and upto Fleetwood and beyond too watch the waves and the seafoam crashing over the defences on days like this, especially at high tide, our kids love it too but obviously from a safe distance | |||

"I am on here trying to take my mind off the creaking roof!! I quite like a bit of thunder and lightning or some rain, but it always sounds like something bad and expensive will happen when there are strong winds. Our fence fell over in the November storm, still finishing off the new fence, would be depressing if that fell over before it's even finished." Go for a ‘hit & miss” design of you want it to last in regular sustained high winds. | |||

" Go for a ‘hit & miss” design of you want it to last in regular sustained high winds. " I presume that's some sort of leave a gap between the slats fence? Last fence lasted over 30 years, died of rot so new fence is in a fairly safe location. New fence design is a horrific "how can I bodge this to reuse part of the old fence" (to save the environment LoL) design. With an added bit of "those metal post repair spikes will be fine". - needless to say it's a bit wonky and wobbly and probably won't last 30 years. - I just need it to outlast the wife's scepticism of my design choices. | |||
