    Thunder and Lightning

    Currently sat in candlelight all alone at Gittins Towers.

    There was a real humdinger at around 8pm. The storm was directly overhead and it wasn't so much raining stairrods as raining steroids.

    Looks like OH's newly seeded lawn has taken a bit of a battering. In fact, it looked like the Somme in the twilight earlier as I peered out through the window.

    Anyway, sat here all alone in the dark with a box of candles at my side to keep me going through the night. What am I going to do for ennertainment? Can't even play charades on my own

    Anyone else being affected by these weather events?

    I do mean a torch of course.

        Technically it's lightning and thunder.

          Very true.

          Lightning and thunder now in north east London. Woke me up.
          Could it be that the gods are displeased with the Scottish referendum?

            You really are such an attention whore.

            Shall we send Brillo round to rescue you from a night of shoving candles up your arse? He could do that for you.

                Well you obviously have some form of electricity or was this post sent by courier pigeon?
                Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                  Phone? Tablet? I give you carrier pigeon though, another viable explanation.
