I nearly just got hit by lightning

[kaliha]

No really. I actually nearly did.

Driving home, minding my own business, thundercloud up above rumbling ominously. Suddenly about sixty or seventy foot in front of me lightning hit the road (m'Dad reckons it hit a drain cover). Had I left work 10 or 15 seconds earlier it would have been a direct hit!

I am somewhat freaked out by it. (Yes I know being in a car is the safest place to be in a thunderstorm but my no claims discount would have been decimated.)

I rung His Lordship and my dad when I got in and they both said "Did you take a picture of it?" erm, no.

I've got home and it's clear blue sky and sunny. But over towards work it's just a mass of black.

Don't forget to bring an umbrella. The weather (as evidenced above) has not been pleasant so far this week.

I'm afraid to bring one in case I jinx it... but as far as things look, I'll need to exit my country, too. Oh, please not another start/landing in a thunderstorm??
