Bloody hell Phil, that'd be enough for anyone to deal with, but with the whole area ruined it must be impossible to get any tradesmen or materials too.

There's a lot of roofers and tree people around. Materials hard to come by yes.

Power might be back on by the end of the month.

I scored very low on the autie test. I’m cheerful, happy, confident, like meeting new people, chatty and largely sociable. What the fuck am I doing on this forum?

If it's still raining that must be a real pain in the arse. Leaving the windows open with good air flow thru the building would help massively I'm sure, as long as looters aren't a problem obviously.

Having to keep it shut else all the bugs get in.

Any chance they would give you cash in lieu of repair on the cars and you could put it towards the garage repairs?
