No ice boulders here, well not that I'm aware of, but a really bad hailstorm for about 5 minutes. Himself had to stop the car in heavy traffic because he couldn't see a thing. Been raining and thundering most of the afternoon, but now it's glorious sunshine and really hot. Strange weather. Hope everything is ok for you LD.

Commiserations to anyone who has had the hail or heavy rain. I hope there isn't too much damage, the news reports look dire
.
Nothing here down in Kent, but very hot and muggy. Forecast is for a 10C drop in temperature overnight, typical as we are off to Brighton tomorrow. OH offered me a trip to the seaside, it's got nothing to do with the fact that DD has been visiting her fiance and is short of cash, so as we are 'in the area' we will give her a lift home
I could not live without a garden, it is my place to unwind and recover, to marvel at the power of all growing things, even weeds!

Giant hail, thunder, flash floods and all I get is drizzle and fog. Can't even see my neighbour's house.

Crikey LD - they be big 'uns! Hope you are all ok and that your barn roof is still in one piece. Thankfully all we had here was lashing rain and a bit of thunder. We're getting some freaky weather this year aren't we!Forbidden Fruits make many Jams.Comment
