Sorry I'm late adding this but have been up near Dover collecting young grandson from a Cub camp. They should have come home tomorrow late morning but with water pouring through the sides and roof of the main tent, the leaders made the decision to leave today. The field at one time looked like a winter's day, - white from hailstones, some as big as marbles. Yes, - some storm!

Hello Kentifolk, Nope, hasn't arrived here yet! Actually, I like thunderstorms, comes of growing up on the edge of Wuthering Heights country, I suppose. Nothing like the brooding blackness darkening still further, as the electric tension builds up to a great crescendo. Then, just when the nerve ends are tingling.......... swish, flash, bang!!!! The storm breaks overhead! (Then after the storm, when the air is refreshed and the rainwater is streaming away and soaking into the soil, they play the music from Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony....! Missed my true vocation, should have been script writing for the screen version. lol! Philip

We had torrential rain this morning about 10.30. It was so heavy it caused flooding along Langley Vale Road and the water was pouring off Epsom Downs in torrents! It's very humid now though, and bright sunshine! We didn't have any thunder though. Sue
