greenhouse. So far, I think that's it.
How did you get on?

Yorkshire - wet last night, not particularly aware of wind. Didn't see whether there was any damage since we left early and went to help fence round a pothole in the Dales. Much nicer than the weather forecast, though cold and *very* windy. I had six layers under my waterproof oversuit! But lots of sunny intervals, and when the precipitation arrived (which it did every 15 minutes or so), it was solid. Preferable to wet, though rather painful on the face.
Rivers very full, and the Wharfe had broken its banks (though not reached the road) in the Ilkley area.
Tonight it is still windy, and very noisy in the chimney of my study.
