We had the BEST thunderstorm last night. Great forks of lightning, thunder so loud it shook the house. It was almost right overhead. I had to go rushing outside, in my dressing gown, in the torrential rain, to turn the motion sensor off on my car alarm, because it kept doing that "warning beep" thing.
Damn, I enjoyed the hell out of it.
I am now placated :o)

Actually, it looks like we may get another - it's veeeerrrry black out there at the moment!
