When the sky is black and threatening he says "That looks very omnibus". ;-) As indeed it does tonight. It's now pitch black but just before the light went totally, the view was monochrome with only the faintest hint of green still in the fields. It was a most unusual sight and I wish I could have photographed it but I doubt it would have registered. It was just like looking at an old black and white photo that had been very slightly tinted. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com Shrubs & perennials. Tender & exotics. South Devon |

Whilst driving from here to Rodez last week, the temperature went from 12 degrees to 24, that is some fluctuation considering Rodez is not that far away but it is at a much lower altitude so obviously they have a more clement climate.

Resulting in a smashed windscreen, dented bonnet, roof, drivers door and front wing as well as one door mirror wiped out completely. She was very shaken but unharmed. Car is now with local body shop and she is driving a little loan car. Oh and this act of god occurred when she was on her way to a church service! Mike |

You will know the Watton Road on the way into Norwich from Marlingford? A colleague of my husband was kileed there when a large bough of a tree crashed through the car and killed him, so your SWMBO had her Angel on her shoulder and God was looking on and nodding. I am relieved to hear despite the shock she is unhurt. Judith |
