Anyone for tennis? I blame Wimbledon for this wetness... stick to higher ground, and make like a lama if you see a chap with a beard building a blooming great boat... ::nods with the wisdom of the years::

We had a tornado. Right here, in the village. In Central Lancashire. Rain was coming in through the back door. ::shakes fist at the sky and demands to know what the hell is Going ON!!::

OMG! Are you ok sweetie? I was kidding about the bloke with the beard, honest! Seriously - are you alright?

Oh fine, hon - thanks for being concerned. It passed over brindle and Withnell but didn't touch ground. But... freaky or what?!

Very very scary - we're not prepared for things like that. ::shudders:: Do you think we could have summer back now? Please? Pretty please...

Glad you're ok tho. ::passes glass of wine::

OOh, thank you baby; I have a rather fine Chardonnay here. ::passes a glass::

The weather is extremely strange. there's no accounting for it. I shall watch out for the old boy in a beard and try to avoid being smited.

It's been interesting weather here as well, but what can you expect it is summer

'It is summer' is not an excuse as far as I'm concerned, missy! Tornadoes are pretty unusual weather for central lancs any time of the year.

We are having some heavy showers down here on the coast, but not the torrential stuff so far you're getting up in the hills (although I can see the result in Lancaster Canal, which is full to bursting). Oddly enough, our showers always occur right as I am walking home from school with the kids, on days when we have no coats! God wants me to have a wet tee shirt ::nods sagely::.

OMGWTF! I have an abiding fascination about tornadoes, but that is a bit too close for comfort!

It's gone cold and rainy here too, but not so heavy it's scary. Hope it clears up soon! ::hugs::

It was unbe-bloody-leivable. It started coming in through the back door and we had a tornado! I mean, what the heck is going on?!

Wow! I didn't think you all HAD tornadoes. They are scary shit! Do you have sirens? I have lived in tornado alley all my life - you get to where you can feel them, actually and they have a sound of their own, too. But at night, when you are asleep is when you are most vulnerable. I keep a set of car keys and a flashlight in my nightstand. 'Batten down the hatches' - well, actually we always open the southwest windows to help with the tornado pressure change, but I have no idea what you all need to do! Scary stuff! Be safe! Wow!

It was a very small tornado as befits our tiny island. Nothing like the big scary-shit bastards you have to live with. It didn't even touch ground - though we had one last year that passed down the village main street. It moved some cars around and knocked a couple of bins over. That one made the news, too. ::grins foolishly::
