Where are you that the wind is so bad?
Is this abnormal?

anywhere in new zealand on the western side most likely.
For western NZ no, unfortunately.

Then a wind break is needed.

We get that Dick, february and march we get a break from the wind.
It comes back though.

Clever response!

I should have written a wind barrier. My garden has a house on the
north lines of trees about 60 ft (19 meters) way on the other sides.

yeah, I knew what you meant. Mine was a sarcastic remark aimed at the very
moderate summer (I think we had it tuesday) we have had so far, wind,
drizzle and very moderate temperatures. We had frosts down south just before
christmas and temperatures for NY eve low to mid teens in areas it should be
mid 20's upwards.
