Hi Jazzgirl, you beat me to it! Just had a tremendous gale and thunderstorm here in London. Not seen the likes since the hurricane in '72 or was it 3 or 4,?
Just had to join in the discussion about the weather! I live in the South-east of London on the Kent borders- all we had was a bit of light(ish) rain! no thunder or strong winds! didn't last long either!
