The sheet lightning last night was quite amazing - although with very little, if any, rain in my area, the ionisation put me on edge.

I have never seen lightning like I did last night, was in the distance but flashes every second, was really amazing.

That probably happened to others too...
That means lots of work for me today


Sends email to order a few PSU's and routers. The time is definately before 1000, so delivery should be in the early afternoon.

Excellent

Nice and cool with a nice thimbleful of a breeze.

Perfect for a braai.

Was not that hot, but the humidity made things a bit iffy.

I wish this howling gale would stop, it puts me on edge. I've just taken a sleeping pill to try to sleep.
