Sadly it did a lot of damage to many tall plants including wiping out all my Lupins although they were past their best at the time.
Worst of all was the damage to the great display of Begonias i had this year. This picture shows the remains of what was a beautiful upright well shaped plant. The storm force winds literally ripped it apart scattering blooms and plant parts around the garden. However, looking on the positive side the plant should have produced a good corm/bulb by now which will be used to produce a strong healthy plant next year!
