Title: I Hear Thunder
Post by: Mr Skrunts on 14 July 2010, 17:25:27
Has gone dark, think it's thunder I can hear (but far away)

Been expecting thunder and lightning for a few days now, but expected it overnight last week when it was really humid.

Gardens were bone dry but started to rain yesterday.  :y

Wonder how my mate has gone on at the Great Yorkshire Show - hope they have a beer tent (He's not driving)

Loads of rain on the drive home this evening.

I saw 4 broken down Mercs, 1 BMW that had hit a tree and a Focus estate on fire!
