Will the insurance cover it?
No as it’s old and it’s wear and tear…..however I’m looking into putting a log burner in

Yes, looking dreadful up there El I think the last red warning for rain was two or three years ago , and that was in Wales .

Forecast for today says 'Strong winds and light rain showers'
I agree with the strong winds, but I have just spent the last ten minutes listening to the HAIL battering off the front windows!
It is just raining now, but doesn't look in any way like a shower!

Considering we are at the top of a hill, we got off fairly lightly!
There was a puddle on the doorstep and the bins had moved around a bit, but nothing blown over.
A lot of fine fronds had blown out of the evergreens that form the hedge, but nothing worse.....and no power cuts!
Hope you managed ok yourself?
@Baz posted:Another storm….Storm Jocelyn …coming tomorrow .
Looking at the weather forecast, it suggests that our area will be hit slightly LESS than last night.
