Wow, close call, glad they didn't get hurt nor the house.  I like your mum -- looks on the bright side of things -- pardon the pun.

@atari2600land - About 25 minute drive away. Other side of the island. You can save yourself some typing/copy/pasting by just calling it Llanfair P.G. You thought we were dumb enough to call it by its full name every time we had to mention it? Screw that! Saying its full name is a party trick pulled off by the locals just to impress visitors. ?  @jd_1138, yeah. Pretty much the local attitude to everything. Block of flats collapsed, killing everyone inside? Sad, but at least the view's improved.

I myself had a tree fall in my back yard and just miss my house, a couple years ago.  Fell just the right way so it missed wires, the house and the fence.  Lucky!
