I was working in the back bedroom and watching the wind try to blow the back fence over, which in turn was lifting up this paving slab, as captured in this video hopefully.11:11:14
Another video of the same.11:20:24
I moved the milk churn to dry and anchor the paving slab / fence down.12:24:02
I started making soup for lunch, then realised we had run out of a vital ingredient, so had to pop to the shops in the middle of the storm. I thought there was some kind of irony (or something) in this canister of balloon gas having been blown out into the road.

Later on, when I headed to the heath, a bin that had been blown over.16:41:40
It was relatively calm by this point, the worst of the storm had been around lunchtime.16:41:42

Lots of debris on the road from trees.

I think this is wild cherry starting to blossom.16:58:44

Nice rays from the sun here.17:06:25
This is the only tree I saw on the heath which appeared to have been fully blown over - although lots of the others had lost some branches.17:06:38
