Its wet here
« on: 20 July 2007, 08:57:00 »
Boy, is it chucking it down here.

We've also just had a few real decent claps of thunder close by - hence the short little outage about 20m ago, network switch locked up.  UPS is bleeping away merrily, as power keeps going off for a few seconds (hope UPS has sufficient charge time between brownouts, else no more OOF for a while!)

Funny, I thought it was us. Our work server went down at the same time and we have clear blue sky. Carlyon Bay looked beautiful on the way to work this morning.

Just had one of those claps of thunder that sets off all the car alarms (except my 2 Omegas  :-/) and house alarms.  The noise is doing my head in  >:(

They had traffic jams in the lanes today, "Arghh a puddle, I must emergency brake"

One village was jammed with school drivers getting confused :(

.. and the Omega's in getting its' bonnet replaced :-(

That makes my only working car... a Westfield! (only just working, exhaust is hanging off due to another dodgy weld)

Chickened out this morning and dropped Emma off at work before driving in in her MX.

Felt a bit like this : http://www.gibbstech.co.uk/aquada.php

Yeah. They lifted the ban about three months ago.  :) :). Trouble is, it still wont stop them though trying to put a ban on using water they will try and make some excuse up  :(

Ermm. No. Did have the window down at one point but wound it up again as I was getting soaked!

Not sure our hose pipe ban ever got lifted. SE Water are bad enough at sending bills out for the correct amount to the correct people let alone stuffing water in pipes.
