And that poor guy in the paper today got caught in the middle of a bridge in lismore on crutches when it hit ..he was very
lucky to survive by all accounts and is just beaten black and blue .

I had not heard about that poor chap.
I wonder if anyone has been killed by hail ..I expect it must have happened someplace at some time.
Up home there was no hail but the lightening seems to be all about me.. it freaks me out having had one hit already.
But the rain just was so intense...
AND all around here are happy for the rain but I reckon we are about due for some floods... I dont mind that ..getting fed by helicopter...
Still another week and it may be bush fires to cope with.
