Plenty here near Skipton. We had large hailstones amongst it all. It’s on its way up to LP Bosscat. :)

The lightning has been caused by Rory’s sensational golf

When it is not a major and he doesn’t bottle it, he can rise to heights nobody else today can.

(it’s dry in Sheffield so I watched it 8-) )
