I had a long day today and will edit my photos tomorrow but here's one of them. It's the kids I feel for having a stupid father.  |

That's a brilliant image John and well worth your trip today!. Looking forward to seeing the others when you get a chance to go through them. Yip, that Child's Father sums up the attitude of many of today's parents...see it all too often around here. Even joung Children left out on their own below close range lightning... http://www.nightskyhunter.com/images/Funnelcloudjuly15th09-31.jpgThis was Lough Neagh during the Summer with a close storm throwing out c-gs. Those Children where playing there during the entire storm in the rain within the risk area. The parents where indoors having drinks and obviously had no brains. |

Yes, a wee bit silly wasn't it . The other aspect I forgot to mention was the wind. Half an hour earlier I'd recorded the wind at 37 mph. and prior to that it had been up at 50 -60mph in the morning. AND it was coming off-shore so a strong gust could easily have taken dad and the little on off that wall.
Fancy leaving kids out in a TS where they look to have a play area with that metal they could have had hold of .Ugh.
