    Same here. Watched the lunchtime torrents from the office and called it
    a day at work at 1330 as the sun came out. Arrived home 1415 just in
    time to see a stunning electrical storm accompanied by an assortment of
    hail, rain and so on.

    Not quite such an enjoyable display for the hotel down the road. It took
    a direct hit and was burning well when I collected the children from
    school[1].

    [1] I confess; by taxi.

    I rather enjoyed my ride home though warm gentle rain this afternoon
    although rain and dual pivot calipers and rush hour traffic don't mix
    so well. I like a nice dramatic thunderstorm me

  4. As a matter of interest, where is the hotel?

    The Holiday Inn, Titchfield - just off the A27, west of Fareham. Your
    question would be more correctly phrased "where /was/ the hotel?"

    Just been past it. Wish I'd had a camera. The exploded tiles are
    quite a sight.

    Apparently it was reception and some sort of function room that went,
    the rooms are ok.

    I missed a downpour on the way home by popping into the swimming pool.
    Still got wet.
