Flat calm all day here Col - good enough for me to treat one of our planters to a new coat of preservative - another coat tomorrow. I think the wind was really frightened, because I took a flask of coffee and my insulated mug out with me.
The planter is in the attached pic - castors make it more suited to rolling it around when full. It is normally chained to a stout anchor fixed to the bungalow wall with tamper-proof bolts and similar anchor on the planter itself. The chain I use is anchor chain normally used for mooring small sailing boats, galvanized, and the locks are premium "sold secure" shed padlocks.
As you possibly can guess, we have roaming toe-rags come around "lifting" what they fancy, but NOT my planters.
