Well now you can all laugh hysterically at me: we had a real
blast come in off the Pacific Ocean yesterday and one of my
coldframe covers blew off. Not just blew off; blew away, utterly
away, so completely away that it is the windborne analogue to the
Monty Python parrot of fame.

It is a gone coldframe cover, lost, strayed, disappeared, never
to be seen again.

Such is life.

Well, I hope that it is easy to replace. Was it a lightweight job,
or a traditional timber and glass one? If the latter, then you get
some quite impressive winds :-)
