It was blue skies when I caught the tram, but when I got out and was walking the few blocks to the pub the clouds had come over. As we were all sitting in the pub it got REALLY dark - I mean, even with the lights on it was hard to see one another - and then it just started p*ssing down. I didn't actually see the hail, though some other folks in the pub remarked on it. It was only a few hours later, after I'd caught a tram home, that I realised whole parts of the inner city were flooded! So that's how it was from my naive, complacent perspective!TimThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10333303180015967125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7529903.post-28731344082713771492010-03-08T19:21:31.200+11:002010-03-08T19:21:31.200+11:00BTW how was the hailstorm where you were, Tim?BTW how was the hailstorm where you were, Tim?Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04108945551064939734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7529903.post-13227787497078828252010-03-08T07:53:42.297+11:002010-03-08T07:53:42.297+11:00... and in a blinding flash of lightning, Steve is...... and in a blinding flash of lightning, Steve is immediately wiped from the earth for uttering the unutterable name...TimThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10333303180015967125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7529903.post-54060318113607585442010-03-07T22:18:14.570+11:002010-03-07T22:18:14.570+11:00I can see your confusion Tim.
