The great storm, made a packet realigning concrete roof tiles on the bungalows around the estate I lived on. As a spritely 23yr old, was happy to hop up and resettle hook on tiles for £20 a pop, made easy money and save the householders lots of insurance grief that ensued.

Yes CW. It was my first day after leaving London commuting to Islington from Hastings. I met a lad on the road up to the station who was trying to get to his first day in a job at Rye. Tiles were raining down and unknown to us two blokes in the town had already been killed. We must have been barmy. Met a bloke who told us the station was closed.

I thought it must be Sussex seaside weather.
Went and played the 9 hole course at oaks park about a week after the 87 storm and road was still blocked with fallen trees..

School was cancelled as the teachers couldn't get there. Suspect it would be the same today.

Fortunately all the huge beech trees fell into Addington Park (where the trams run now) rather than across the road.
We had Luton away the day after the storm, the game was on, these days it would be cancelled to protect people’s mental health

RP - I remember taking the train from Hastings to Charing Cross once they were running again after the storm. In that part of Kent huge areas of woodland were lopped down about six feet from the ground, as if by a giant scythe.

Re-naming towns... after the 1987 storm, Sevenoaks would have been re-named Oneoak

I'm quite close to a Morecambe supporter. It breaks my heart to see what they've become.

Maybe now but when it was first created, probably just three. Bit difficult to keep changing the name everytime a new bridge is built
