Weird weather!

Not the snow, nor the high wind, but the single flash of lightning followed by a rumble of thunder that happened over south Suffolk last night,,, never experienced that in a snow-fall before.

Probably explains why we had several brief power cuts last night...

As opposed to the power cut we had this morning, which was due to our washing machine deciding that it was going to trip the RCD!

My wife now has a pile of wet clothes and no means of washing or drying them...

Yep, one of the young Imprezza brigade here just stuffed his car down the car park grass banking playing the fool.

Pity cameras are banned in the office, his car is a picture, his face even better realising his job is now on the line.

I too saw the flash of lightning and heard the thunder. No one else in the house did though, just me and the dog.
Very weird

Definately a coming apocalypse!

I suspect that Xander failed to convince Willow that a yellow crayon was a reason not to destroy the World.


Cheers,

P.S. That's an end of Series 6 Buffy the Vampire Slayer reference for those not in the know!

Yep - that thunder was properly odd last night. It made my mate jump which was quite funny though!

Which reminds me of one of my favourite quotes from a friend,

"After all the buffy i've been watching it was positively cultural!"

I bought the boxed set of all 7 series for my girlfriend last Xmas. My current unemployment state is allowing me to catch-up!
A few crappy bits but plenty of good stuff in there too!

Cheers,
James

EDIT: And I'm not *just* referring to the "Wicca" scenes in it either!
