Vik54 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Never mind tonight I have trees in the garden that are basically horizontal now - its meant to be peaking around about now and tailing off during the late evening. It took me two and a half hours to get home this afternoon as the Bridge is shut so had to go via Perth through a hailstorm the size of grapes Is crazy loud out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
