Thanks all, It was a wild night but all is OK!
Some of my roof lifted, the cubby went for a trip, tree branches all over the place but no major damage.
I went for a drive into Ballarat today to pick up my daughter & Grandson for Christmas and on the way in & back I saw trees down almost everywhere!!!
As I passed the Pine Forest I realised how strong the wind was last night. Hunderds of huge Pines are snapped clean in half and hundereds more are on a 45 degree angle.
It is still very windy here at the moment but nothing like last night. I can't get up and fix the roof at the moment as the wind is still a bit too strong for that. I can here the iron sheets flapping around up there while I am sitting here.
Hopefully the wind will stop so I can do some repairs! I haven't got the pooter out of the cubby yet to test it as it too windy for that too. I don't intend to get hit by a flying branch!!
Last night was the strongest winds I can remember since I was in a cyclone in Cairns back about 1970. The noise was incredible.
Nothing mentioned on the News about it all
Anyway, we are OK
