Northern Scotland had some pretty impressive thunder and lightning today. Including us in Angus. Checking our broadband (part fibre) router log, our Internet went down 12 times between 2.54pm and 4.17pm, during the height of the thunder and lightning storm this area experienced all afternoon. I'm so glad Martin was at home today. Key roads around Dundee were flooded, as well as the Overgate Shopping Centre. Martin was home for a dental appointment, and also took loads of books to Oxfam's, and library books back for me. But luckily that was hours before the storm hit. We had quite a lot of lightning he says (I was asleep!), but the main thing was the very loud constant rumbling thunder for hours. Oh and because he'd taken the day off the frequent loss of Internet didn't affect his work.

We also lost broadband Internet connection briefly around midnight/1AM on Monday morning, though that was just before a power cut hit (luckily briefly!) 5500 properties in DD5 and DD7. But yes, been a bit of a week.
