These are really scary pictures, OG. What are all the stones in pics 2 and 3? Is it a collapsed wall? And that tree looks like quite a big one, although its root system is fairly small. Hope things have calmed down a bit by now! It's pouring with rain here at the moment.

Do you know OG some of those fallen branches are bigger than most of my trees and they're all at least 12 years old...not that I'd want one falling on me just the same! The beach trying to get into the garden is quite scary!

Pic. 5 down: no root on that tree! Looks as flat an apple (or mango, or blueberry) pancake with all the fruit bits taken out. I am surprised it did not blow away with the first whiff. Is there a hard pan (soil not culinary nomenclature) on Luing?
