Scum Class Works (the caravan) leaked quite badly around the front window, due to a water-runoff design flaw that I wasn't aware of.
The Works' test tramway was lucky that the three or so minutes of quarter-inch hail, did very little damage.
Wednesday night, after the power went out.

Between the hail and mulch washed into the gully, the bridge looks almost superfluous.

My hammered-in steel spikes, and bricks stacked on the umbrella's base, (umbrella was of course already closed) did little against the wind. The Imperial Hotel had only been plonked outside on Saturday, awaiting a cement road in front of it, before I could call it complete. Very lucky the umbrella didn't undo those two years of work - or the side-access glass sliding door of the house.

All my rooves are bound to be dented by hail sooner or later, but even my pessimistic a*se didn't expect it to happen within a week of completion.. I've noticed when looking at the pub as a whole, the eye seems to overlook the large unsightly dents, and the pub takes on a more "lived-in" and realistic appearance. That's how it looks to me, anyway..

I'm not surprised at the damage to the railings, either; they're quite fragile in any case. Nothing's missing, and it'll be an easy repair when I get round to it.

The bank is virtually undamaged, besides looking like a riot passed through. The other buildings have only very minor roof denting and dirt splashing..

The track is messy, but undamaged. Besides the patches that turned white, (because I used too much glue during construction 9, months ago) I'm very, very pleased with the ballast's long-term performance.

The plants however have taken a beating. I'll have to fertilise everything to encourage new growth, though it's unlikely to happen any time soon, as we're rapidly heading into Winter..

Since these photos were taken on Thursday, I've already re-mulched the garden, and the pub and road will be done in the coming days.
