Good to hear that you are safely through it, and Bazf must be too if he was posting.

Re: More Hurricane fun
What about Sparko in China? There's heavy flooding & a hundred dead there. I hope he's taken his wellys and umbrella with him.

Re: More Hurricane fun
Glad to hear you made it safe, John, I thought about you over the weekend - two in a couple of weeks does seem a bit too much.

Re: More Hurricane fun
Sparky's fine, it's really hot there but he has managed to find some decentish booze, he has recently discovered a KFC and has set up camp there. He's got a bit fed up with meat looking like road kill but thanks to good old Colonel Sanders his appetite is back on track.
He is probably bevvied as I post this...

Awww, you've sussed me yet again.
It's 1:30 in the morning here. There's not much else to do, apart from drink.
We saw the satellite picture on Channel 9, the English speaking channel. At the time, the tropical typhoon was kicking ass over Taiwan before kissing the coast of mainland China, then moving on up towards Japan. The temperature dropped from 36 degrees to 21 degrees on Sunday, as we caught the periphery of the storm. It was most welcome in Danyang.

Re: More Hurricane fun
Are you expecting a call from Hurricaine Ivan, because he looks like a biggie???

Re: More Hurricane fun
Hi,
Here is the latest from Hurricane Ivan. It could well be intending to drop in also, it seems to be following a similar track to the one Charley decided to take. I think it's someone else's turn actually, not that I would wish bad luck on anyone. So, in a nutshell, p*ss off Ivan.
Still no power, still no telephone service. Life in Florida without AC is no fun at all, then you get to have cold showers in the morning. Oh, deep joy!

Re: More Hurricane fun
The cold showers should compensate for the lack of air conditioning. Seriously, it must be grim and I hope this next one misses you and you can all start to pick up the pieces and get back to normal.
