Great Balls of Fire!

I'm not that much of a wuss (honestly!), but last night's thunder and lightning display here was far beyond anything ever seen in the auld sod! It's rainy season here now, so there are lots of clouds around. Put that together with the humid atmosphere and boom (literally!) - thunder and lightning heaven (or hell, depending on how you look at it!). The explosive sonic display certainly scared the bejesus out of me last night - I almost cried out for my mammy at one stage!! Hopefully, I will get used to it and be able to reduce the whimpering in future!!

That aside, thankfully the weather here isn't as repressive as it can be - it's 'only' about 25 degrees Celsius during the day and a bit cooler again at night. Now if they could only invent a massive de-humidifier, it would be perfect!

Herself tells me that that storm was bad even by Singapore standards, so that's good news as far as hiding under the duvet with the rosary beads is concerned!
