Recent high winds and heavy rain over Western Europe caused massive damage to property, while we got off relatively easy. There’s a hole in the roof of the barn, about 30cm x 1m big. I’ll have to improvise a fix to keep the load bearing walls and wooden beams dry, although it won’t be worth fixing properly. The roof will be replaced completely in a few months. A tree next to the windmill split close to the trunk, which is now pressing against the outside of the wall. I’ll have to get in there with a chainsaw and cut the branch down before it causes structural damage. Pity I only have an electric chainsaw, and we don’t have electricity on the property yet. Time to either buy a generator or a non-electric chainsaw, I guess. A man can never have too many chainsaws, right?
