It's been really windy this week, with Storm Eleanor causing problems across the UK. But power cuts and road closures weren't the only things you had to deal with. Some kids lost their trampolines to the wind. And some of the trampolines caught up in the storm were found in some unusual places. Shoppers in Johnstone near Glasgow had a surprise when they found this one wedged between a local shop and the bus stop.

One kid's loss is another's gain - this trampoline found its way into the wrong back garden in Leeds, though it looks like it might not have survived the journey.
