I don't particularly like storms but would give anything for one now 

oooh you are lucky Mups, I'd love a few black clouds right now.

 Oooh . .   its got that creepy,  very still,  feeling in the air here,  plus there some ominous big  black clouds  overhead. 

Oh Gawd,  I just heard a rumble of thunder in the distance too  . .   

Now then,  do I water the plants,  or do I  let nature do it?   


BTW,  does anyone here ever unplug their tellies and computers during a  storm?

And that is exactly  why half of these young people go on to re-offend.   
They know there will be no punishment dished out,  and it's the same with all the shoplifters.

Bu the way,  I read in the paper over the weekend they are talking about doing away with the idea of being allowed to nick £200 worth of stuff without punishment. 
When we were young,  some kid might nick a sweet from the Pick 'N Mix,   but that's hardly the same as a whole week's groceries or the entire Christmas booze list, is it!

Yes, that is beyond understanding. The judge isn't fit for purpose. 
How will those poor girls ever get over it?!

Me too, Michael, been having my afternoon nap, it's 20°C in here at the minute.
I don't know what it is outdoors. I see the trees are moving in the slight breeze.

well mine was OK

love it!
