| Mother Nature Last night we had a thunder storm. It was pretty normal stuff until there was a huge bang at the same time as a flash. It was like an explosion. I was sure it had hit something so went out into the street to see all the neighbours looking at something on the floor. When I walked over there was a poor blackbird all naked and smouldering with its feathers stroon about with that singed eyebrow smell in the air and just by it on the road surface was a meter across scorch mark. The bird was a little over cooked so I didnt eat it! Anyone else got any strange mother nature on a killing mission stories?   |

| Well...not quite, but we did experience the same storm yesterday....and actually very similar events (minus the bird!). I was getting ready to leave the house when there was an almighty bang...again like you say, more of an explosion that typical loud lightning. I went outside expecting to see a house in pieces or a car in flames...but nothing as dramatic. Fcuk me it was loud though!  |

| Jeez, yeah it lashed it down last night in Swindon. I love watching thunder and lightning though - easily pleased, me  I got some great footage last year of a monster lightning strike straight into 2 doors down's back garden. Jacko. [Edited on 11-5-2006 by JACKO748S] |
