I have images of trees by rivers, of bushes in hedges and of flowers in a jug. They are pretty, but there is nothing more beautiful than nature itself. The wind blew our silver birch down. My husband is sawing up the trunk and branches. Each piece is like a work of ar...

E'n lowarth agan kentrevogyon ma branch brâs war an dor, codhys dhort gwedhen goth hir. Fortüdnyes ew na wrüg an branch codha war do aga chei.  The storm came and now it has gone again. But it has left some traces. In our neighbours' garden there is a big branch on the ground, fallen from a tall old tree. It's lucky that the branch didn't fall on the roof of their house.

Eus pibel terrys dadn an dor? Hedna a via pajwora tra. Bès, da lowr. Nag eus bès re a law.  Our beautiful tree fell down. It is said, "Bad things come threefold". What will be next? I stumbled in the garden and injured my forefinger. Is that the second mishap? And I smashed the cat's little door with my head! Is that enough? Will there be more? Is there something wrong with our water? Is there a broken pipe under the ground? That would be a fourth thing. But, OK. There is just too much rain.

Our silver birch did not lose her dead leaves, so the branches were heavy. Storm Austen came from the north in the night. In the morning, here's the tree, fallen to the ground, pointing south. The tree trunk is broken off and the roots are ripped from the ground. Goodbye, old shed!

What do we need? For light, we need lamps with batteries. We also have candles with matches to light them. The central heating will not work without power and we do not want to use the woodburner. There are two camping gas stoves in the cupboard. We can boil a kettle of water for a cup of tea and ...

They are everywhere, in the launders (gutters) and on the glass roof. The evergreen trees and hazels are swaying in the wind, but they are not losing their leaves yet. Soon there will be a stronger wind. There is an amber warning for Cornwall. Storm Austen is coming on Friday.

It's the first quarter. It is not high in the sky. Why is it so low in the sky? I do not understand the moon! Is it setting or rising? It's among the clouds behind the trees.
