Good plan Batman!

There was on strike of lightning that was very close to me (Swathling) and that woke me up, took me ages to get back to sleep.

And there's nothign wrong with Millbrook, I'd rather walk there at midnight than in some other parts of the City.

I went outside for it and danced in the rain with a lady friend. :cool:

Was some awesome thunder, though some silly git has his alarm far too sensitive as it went off every single time...

and yes - pub crawl sounds awesome

well it looks like its about to start again here in C Ford

Heard thunder about an hour ago BUT my day at the beach was great, hot but cloudy with no sign of rain.

Anyone near Southampton see the large flash?

The thunder took ages to get to Chandlers Ford but damn it was loud.

And they said we would have no thunder storms tonight

I missed it and I love thunder and lightning. I slept through it

Superdude · 26 Jul 2006 at 21:37

Here we go again!

EDIT: It's going crazy! Towards Southampton for those in CF. The lightning is as clear as day, striking the ground but I can't hear any thunder. Either because of the background noise or the aliens are here.

hope we get a nice storm up here this heat is driving me mad.

if we do ill be running around the street gene kelly style

Mikey · 26 Jul 2006 at 22:01

bbq sounds good, but it should come before a pub crawl... undercooked meat doesnt settle so well after 10 pints!

plus of course the only food to end a night of drinking on is radjani's kebabs.

My dad got a new camera today, and I used it to take photos of this storm as it passes over the isle of wight

.

This second one is a 15 second exposure, it looks like daytime! despite it being pitch black outside.

Van Hellseek · 26 Jul 2006 at 22:06

i've just started to hear thunder again... :eek:

matt100 · 26 Jul 2006 at 22:11

here we go again!

just waiting for the sound of upset kids know

Superdude · 26 Jul 2006 at 22:19

It's on top of me now

Hold me.....
