Did anybody else have a storm Friday night (well, early hours of Saturday morning really?). OH and I were staying in our new caravan, didn't have any pre-warning (perhaps as well) but about 3.30am I woke to hear all the pheasants squawking and flying about outside, usually they only do that if there has been gun-fire or a low-flying heli nearby. The temperature soared and then about half an hour later there was the most horrendous thunder and lightning. I don't mind admitting it, I was very scared:skull::mask: We jumped out of bed in the end, threw our jods and fleeces on and made a run for it to the stables (not far, but it seemed like an eternity in the dark between rumbles and flashes). I just didn't feel safe in the caravan, thought we'd be better in the tack room. Anyway, the horses were awake, Joe was peering out avidly over his box (brave boy) but Storm was running about in circles. I just had to be near them, I felt safer somehow?:unsure: I thought "well, if this is it, I'll be with the horses in the end". Silly to hear in the light of day I know. Fed them both a polo each and hoped for the best. It took ages to pass, was shattered Saturday. You could tell when it had gone the temp went right back down. Horrid horrid weather.
Anybody else have the same?
