Back to the original post, my wife found this somewhere. Seems a bit dramatic if true - every tree was lost? Not even blown over to be made into firewood or charcoal but lost as in don't know where they went?

 

Would be nice to know they're ok, at least the shipping container shouldn't have blown away?

It also says the trees will return so either they have all been made into boomerangs or they were homing trees all along.

Cant stand Ben Fogle, whenever hes on i turn off. 

Me too, I admire him for his achievements  but couldn't watch much of the program. I was surprised he was so inept with a saw. The couple came across okay by me so good luck to them with clearing up after the storm.

 

After all these years I cannot understand why people are still dicking about with trying to make a living with ring kilns.

Just watched the before and after video of when the storms hit on youtube, they were certainly hit hard but I'm sure they will recover from it.

You can see the video here if interested-

I think as nat made the comment on social media , the scale of damage here wasn't shown on any main stream news , people didn't have power for weeks in parts of Northumberland ... if it had been any other part of England there would of been outcry, the prime minister didn't even declare in a national emergency ffs.
