    Summer rain - glorious. Although my daughter is camping in Deal and may not be quite so keen!

    As muggy as a SMALLwall crowd in the Weald of Kent, but no sign of storms as yet.

    Dramatic photos, Stig. The second one vaguely resembles a foot, with heel, toe and toenail. Is this a sign, an omen?

    mate I was out last night on mine, I had just finished up at warwick avenue tube, my cabbie pal met me there and we were going for a coffee at the 24hr café in kings cross ,at about 2am in the time it took for me to ride up bishops bridge and onto Marylebone rd the heavens opened and it looked like I had jumped in a pool , I couldn't even go in the café as I was drenched and pissing myself with laughter so much,

    lesson learned always have your coat and waterproofs pal

    the lightening was mental though I loved it , the poor bstds outside Kates hospital in Paddington wernt so happy though
