Title: here comes a storm!
Post by: oxford_fan on Saturday, July 22, 2006, 12:13:29
i hear the rumble of thunder in the distance, could be a big'un.

which is quite annoying as its my mates 21st tonight (and his dad's 50th, and his sisters 18th). he's wacked a marquee up in his garden and it could be disasterous if it chucks it down. i'll take a camera in the hope that the marquee colapses on people.

just went out to try and get a present for this party tonight and all the roads are blocked up. police all over the shop too, directing traffic. drains overflowing bigtime and many rivers along the roads. and the bloody off license was shut "due to rain", slackers.

Sorry dude, the storm put our power out, just got it back.  Looks like it's trying to calm down now.  

Has it hit you yet?


Title: here comes a storm!
Post by: Bedford Red on Saturday, July 22, 2006, 14:53:15
Yes it has KT. Thought I'd closed all the windows at the back of my house as it was pouring in there but forgot my spare bedroom! The curtains probably needed a wash anyway!

Finished now though it appears and hasn't got any cooler at all.

Comet, Homebase and Next (by Asda) all closed thanks to their roof not working.

Might be some water damaged bargains tomorrow, though I wouldn't risk the comet stock!
