WINDY Wellington

 Hi there

Wow, it's  been windy in Wellington today.  For the last hour, I'd been hearing bangs and noises.  A couple of pieces of my garden furniture blew around.  

 It's about 8 pm Sunday (NZ time) as I type this. 

About fifteen minutes ago, I went to close the bedroom blinds and I thought, "Hey, I don't remember the rose bush outside my bedroom blocking the window...  Oh, wait a minute, that's not my rose bush -  I see yellow kowhai flowers..."

My kowhai tree had blown down.  The bushy branches were actually brushing against the window, the tree trunk about a metre from the front of my house.  Thank goodness it's not a huge tree.  It broke off at ground level and is lying not-so-flat on the front lawn.
