Torrential downpours

21st August 2004

Middle of summer and so much rain around it’s not funny. I was caught in a thunderstorm a week ago with an umbrella in one hand and a kitchen trolley in another :) Oh and a knapsack which I shouldn’t have brought along. Nevertheless running in the rain and hoping and praying that the lightning flashes you are seeing don’t find a reason to come your way is something I won’t (and won’t want to) experience again soon. I should have had the damn trolley delivered ;)
That was a while ago but recently even more torrential downpours have hit the northern areas of Scotland and England. Lots of flooding and devastation and rescues. Charlie is causing much havoc stateside as well. We have mostly managed to avoid the rain here is london so far but we hear it is approaching ….

Had a really nice time a few nights ago with my friends Phil and Julia and Carlos and Jenny. They were hosts at our first tea party at the new flat. Muchos fun was had by all.

Apple Tablet coming up? new G5 iMacs being released end of August, which should be very interesting. I can’t wait to see their new design for the iMacs as I’m sure everyone else is. Phil Schiller is doing the keynote speech this time though as Jobs just underwent cancer surgery. I wish him a speedy recovery.
