How to fix a weak DIY fence?
What can I do to protect the fencing in my back garden from windy weather? The fencing was installed about a year ago. We’ve already had one piece of fencing snap last winter and we want to avoid more damage this time round. Is there anything we can fit, preferably discreetly to the fencing to give it more durability?

Shoring up fence with loose/rotten posts
I’ve got a fence that is 10 posts long, currently leaning (about 20cm at its worst) and flapping in wind. 5 of the posts are still very sturdy when force applied, the other 5 have varying degrees of wobble. Is there a way of fixing without digging out existing posts? I was wondering if I could put a few posts in on opposite side? After reading the costs of getting the posts replaced professionally (£150-250 each) I think it’s a fair bit out our budget just now. Any tips appreciated
