    I, for one, am very grateful that you clarified that Wick was near Southerndown.

    Just got to hotel in Lodz, 12 hours after leaving home. Stuck on taxi way at Heathrow for over a hour.

    Warsaw not windy, in fact very pleasant 10c. Snow forecast for Tuesday though!

    Why dont you buy a fence that accommodates the wind?

    What do you suggest? I need about 150 yards of it if I was to renew the lot.

    There's got to be a market for a fence that has slats that blow open to allow for the wind.. but I'm no design engineer so im ****ed if I have a serious suggestion

    If the slats open, wouldn't that mean more wind through the fence and more potential to destruct it? Maybe someone might know.

    Everyone around here has the same issue and my guess is that even if such a fence existed the cost to replace it would be astronomical. I would rather replace the odd few panels each year than to replace the lot in one go with a new type. Slatted fences should be better as they would cause less wind resistance and stop the posts from snapping. Four inch posts seem fairly resilient to snapping but as soon as they get a few years old the rot sets in making them more vulnerable to breakage. Concrete posts are stronger but look awful. Whoever thought a football forum would discuss the merits of different fence types LOL.
