Yesterday we had a lightning storm and about 5mm rain in a couple of minutes which stopped as fast as it started.
Power was on and off and lots of electrical cracking noises in the house. My neighbour said he had sparks coming out of his phone socket!
After it passed, computers booted but the router had died. Luckily the phone still worked so rang the sprog who ordered me a new one express. Our TV comes through the net, so we watched A Fistful of Dollars on DVD
Think I'll do some more mowing now, it's sunny and dry.
