    At least I wont have to worry about losing fence panels this weekend as I have none left i will put some items on the poly covers though as I don't want a repeat of last week where they were tossed around like paper..... Storm Dennis honestly who names these storms surely they can be names something a bit more exciting...….. Storm Ogon sounds a bit more threatening

    We seem to be getting more and more storms every year now and they're getting worse, rain is the same it just won't stay dry for any length of time.

    That tickled me.
    If you said that to anybody off here you'd get strange looks.

    You should write to the storm people and ask them to use it for the next C storm.

    Yeah...

    Shiro Super Sport has a nice ring to it.
    Or Tancho Turbo.
    And Kia Kohaku sounds quite realistic.
