Bugger me, just had some crazy weather here! It sounded very loud so I looked out the window and it was absoltely pelting down with hailstones the size of peas! Check out the photos of my Supra and front step, that's after no more than 2 minutes! It's now completely stopped again. Bizarre.

OMG.

 

This brings back some unhappy memories for me.

 

I'd just picked up my Green Supra a few years ago, only 4k miles on the clock...drove to South of France via Ferry to Bilbao (Spain)

 

In France i went to this medieval village called Najac..(it the town where i took the pic for last years calender only more recently.)

 

In the town sq they have some wooden car ports in the parking areas, i decieded to park right outside the Bar for a pint (coz I wanted to show off obviously),I couldn't understand why all the other cars were out of sight and under carport shelters..!!!

 

Suddenly the penny dropped doh! Hailstones the size of Cricket balls started falling, if anyone had been hit by these things they would surely end up in hospital lol.

 

Set the car alarms off and after i went to get in the car i noticed big dents all over the roof, great lol.

 

Some French bloke was trying to talk to me before the hailstorm, i just assumed he was saying 'what a lovely car i have and how great i am ha ha', so being so soaked up in my own granduer i didn't listen to what he was really trying to tell me doh.

 

Lesson learned - Supras dont like hailstones and learn more French:rolleyes:

Global Warming is scary....the day after tomorrow is a fairly resonable backlash in the not so distant future
