Windy weather - Vinny - 22-05-2020
This has got to be the windiest year I've ever known.
At present its howling down the chimney and causing mass destruction in the local area. Leaves and branches are all over the place as if autumn has come early.
Anything without any weight is being blown around the garden.
I was at the allotment earlier and was glad to get out of the greenhouse where I am sure the glass was pulsating with he wind. I am now at the point of 'sod it' let it do what it will and I will clear up the mess once it calms down.

I agree, it's been very windy this year. It dries everything out so quick too, as well as being destructive.
I had hoped to have some compost delivered to the allotment in bulk this weekend, but none of the suppliers have responded, so I've resorted to buying it at the cheap german stores instead, which actually is cheaper. 10 40 litre bags today. I'll be going back to the allotment tomorrow, so will be emptying the car then.
I tried getting on with stuff in the back garden when I got home but it's too windy. So now I'm studying! (well I should be!!)

It’s been very windy here in Ireland since Tuesday night, lots of stuff blowing round the garden, even the hanging shelves in the poly tunnel are swaying. I had to move my pots with sunflowers round the front of poly tunnel for some protection

Big trees in full leaf, thrashing about over my head, put me off doing my garden patrol today. Kept the GH doors closed even though its been very hot in there. Hope it subsides soon.
Another good reason to stay Home, Stay safe.
