Thunder and lightening don't bother me.........if you're a bit scared, try singing about your favourite things.

There wasnt time. She asked it politely to haul its self up to me. Sadly though it seems to be slolwer than a constipated rocking horse in its effort to head this way.

You shouldn't really be using computers (or most electronic appliances) during a lightening storm, even if it's not immediately over you. The power surge if a bolt hits somewhere along the leccy supply chain may be enough to damage sensitive stuff like PCs.

All computers should go through a serge protector anyway
all my PCs and laptops go through Big Belkin serge protectors

Think the best lightening storm I ever witnessed was in 1975 when I was working in Carlisle, it was a really warm night and we were all sat outside the hotel with a pint, as you do, and it started lightening, both sheet and forked it was lighting up the road like it was daylight, lasted for around 20 minutes, but it never rained
