With the major flooding and storm damage happening around the country/world it seems crass to post little damage like this on those threads, so here is one for almost trivial but bloody annoying storm damage. Not for sympathy, just as somewhere to vent.

Hopefully to appear on the What have you repaired thread soon

Thanks, I tried clicking IMG and pasting the google link in, which I thought used to work, but got nothing so added the actual link. I lose track of the latest variant required to show google photos on here.

The gazebo should fit in a wheelie bin and I reckon a scrap yard would remove the car for you if you paid then £50. ; - )

Thanks for the tip and I have used it before. I could download the image from google photos and then upload it to postimages and then get a link and then post the link into here I suppose.

I do that sometimes but other times it just seems like too much hassle to bother.

Are the photos on your device?

Easiest way (this week) is to use the inbuilt photo uploader rather than paste a URL of an image.

Edit - Scratch that. I see you're a free member. Don't think you can do that.

Who wanted a chevette 911 bastardo conversion? Sorry if I've missed something along the way

My sister had a white and brown one for her first car. 200 quid. Windows didn't open because they were held up by wooden blocks.

She called it the Shove-it as that was commonly the starting procedure.

A baby blue Chevette was the very first car I bought with my own money, all £130 of it.

Watty - i stayed the thread to share trivial but annoying storm damage photos after my gazebo broke in the recent weather but then it just descended into mocking my car.

It's not to late to stop WCA.

Although might help with the gazebo.

The bonnet appears to be having the opposite problem on this one.

Back to the actual topic of this thread, things are getting serious.

I came down stair today to discover this chaos among the storm damage outside.

A wheelie bin? Far too stylish for your projects 😛
