Please say I am not the only wimp that hates thunderstorms. I think it is inherited as my mother used to hide in the cupboard under the stairs whenever one came ! They just frighten me, I worry about the house being struck by lightning - not common I know. :-((
I'm in rural Fylde between Preston and Blackpool,it chucked it down for 20 minutes and thundered for about 10 minutes,now it is just drizzling with the sound of very distant thunder,its still blooming hot though!
