Falling trees can spoil your day

A phone call around 3pm to say a tree had been blown onto our trailer tent.
We hightailed it back from the centre of Norwich as fast as the bus would carry us to be greeted with this sight as we entered the camp.
The wardens were hard at it cutting bits off in an attempt to lighten the load and make lifting the trunk off the roof a possibility for 4 men.
When all cleared away we took stock, at least 2 possibly 3 of the 5 roof frames are bent, the awning may be punctured and the main canvas has suffered quite a few major scrapes.
Packed up and came home. 
The fun and games with insurance starts tomorrow.
Looks like 2017 is over as far as camping is concerned.
