Here in the wilds of Swansea bay last night we had thunder rolling all
over the place, but just caught the fringes of the rain until around
Midnight when we had the daddy of thunder and a hard half an inch of rain.
A lot of it has gone in and there are just a few puddles remaining now.
Managed to plant a few dahlias despite the mud on my boots so now I have 9
beds planted, that's around 2000 plants in and just around another 1000 to
go.

I certainly did hear it but it seemed to be along way off. I did "see"
one big flash through closed eyelidids. The rain sounded very heavy here in
Glais.

A lot of it was over the Channel, but one lot was just over the mountain
from you, and we were under it.
The wife said it went on till after 4am, I slept through most of it.
We were wondering where you had gone to.
