    Morning BM and windy

    I'm off out soon so better take a brolly. It keeps the rain off when it's raining and helps support me if it's windy (not you windy, but the weather) don't know what I'll do if it is windy and rainy :D :D I'd better take two brollies.

    The cloudburst made it as far as us 3-ish this morning ... quite a downpour and unheard of in August! :confused: Not complaining, though, the plants loved it! :D We're due thunder tonight and showers again tomorrow.

    Jazid, is a Henchman on of those that bend in all directions, straight up, A frame, U frame, etc? If so, we have one ... absolutely great but don't reach our 15 foot high ceilings here! :eek:

    Your're lucky I love thunderstorms and the met men keep promising us one but we haven't had a storm all year. In laws have just phoned from Sheffield where it's thundering and lightening as well. I've come inside because it is too hot to sit out in the garden!
