Yes,  me too.   Especially if the storm is close by.

Do we need to unplug computers and radio's too, does anyone know?

Yes.  Quite.
But the break in was intentional though,  wasn't it.   

No one just happens to break into someone's property by accident!

We 've had a really hot day here but no signs of a storm - yet 

Gosh Alex, that took me back.   When we were kids, I remember my Mum  used to cover the mirrors too.

Brings back memories. I think my parents still unplugged everything when there was a storm right til the end. Covers got left out of it earlier though.

Yes scumbags for sure. I just hope for the sake of the farmer that they weren't scumbags who were running away. I'd hop it quick if somebody was waving a shotgun at me. At close range they can make a pretty big hole.

Yeah I'm out. People will believe what they want to believe including me.

Here we go again !  poor young footballer, he wasn't a footballer he was a thief, or a would be thief.
