Holy Christing hell on earth!
It has been IMMENSELY hot in England the past couple of days, too hot last night for me to sleep infact, and I got no sleep. So tonight we decided to put the tent up to sleep in the cooler air in the garden, just when we started to put the tent up we heard a distant rumble of thunder. Usually our thunderstorms are like a couple of rumbles about 10 miles away that last about 3 minutes. Well, continuing to put the tent up the rumbles started getting closer!
we started to put it up faster, and thank god too! we just finished putting the last peg in when the first little spots of rain landed on us. Then from actually really sunny nice weather, a change within about 20 seconds, the time it took me and Linny to get back to the door of the house, it was completely black and the rain was torrential! The back garden, containing the tent, was flooded with half a foot of water in the space of about 5 mintues.... wtf!?
The water outside the patio doors is about half way up the shins! This weather is bloody crazy! and I HATE how hot this country is these days!!!!! [V]
