If it's too hot - put the washing out Rosie. That'll guarantee some rain to cool things down for you!! :rofl::rofl::rofl: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowtracdave Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 (edited) Was in Clacton last night for a band rehearsal & by the time we finished around 11.30 there was lightning everywhere we looked . Following one of the other lads back I nearly came unstuck - he was fine in his Navarra going through the 12" deep water but the Jaguar didn't appreciate too much wading !

Enigma Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Yesterday evening we had thunder and severe rain. I couldn't drive faster than 35 MPH because visibility was so bad. The street behind ours was flooded and another blocked by the Fire dept. No pics cause I wasn't home. Lot of rain the past few hours.

Good for mudsurfing...bad for the Renault... Indeed a good thing we didn't have this weather at Beltring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
