I missed it, only got to temple meads on the train half an hour or so after it passed.

Fortunately i ended up getting a taxi from temple meads driven by some crazy rasta, who described the whole thing in the most glorious and animated way, which was pretty fun.

Stormclouds are gathering in Kettering also.

I was out walking this afternoon, nowhere near any possible shelter, and got abso-fucking-lutely soaked to the bones of my bones.

I was releasing tadpoles and froglets back into the pond. Got totally drenched and loved every minute of it!

Missed this as we were on a train, but my mate who picked us up from the station said it was the heaviest rain he has ever seen in Bristol.

I was sitting in my warm cosy office, drinking a cup of orange redbush tea watching the storm....'Ahhhh' *sighs contentedly*

 

[fizzerbird]

Dunno whether i'd agree about the heaviest rain but the sub-bass lines from the rumbling thunder were some of the lowest i'd felt, most enjoyable!

Blimey - must have been very localised. Might explain the amount of water in my kitchen though ...

For me it was 10th September '05 when my street turned into a river.
