    I saw it once when i was on a ship in the Baltic.

    There are the same static charges going on in snow clouds as rain clouds, but at a slower rate, but the charge builds up more so when it is released it can be a biggie.

    It happens near the coast more often due to the differing temperature between the water and the land.

    That's what the bridge officers told us to inform passengers anyway.

    I kind like the idea of OPE going up though!

    I've seen something like this before, about ten years ago, ball lightning in the middle of a snowstorm.

    I think I'll spot it more often if it knocks my sky out each time and leaves me gawping out the window.

    ****ing nature, it should be against the law.

    It would be nice if people stopped wishing Orchard Park to be bombed. Some of my old friends still live there. I had an exellent upbringing there and...oh alright blow it up,iv'e finished with it now anyway.

    Had my first under age pints in Concorde. Pulled my first whore in Pin&Pot. I reckon it became P&P in about 1980ish.

    I can confirm that the low visibility has now forced the boats on the Humber to HOOT and TOOT very loudly and for a long time.

    It's all kicking off now.

    Also, a lot of my mates come off Orchard. Fair enough, they're all scum, but I've had some fun up there over the years.

    I remember my great Grandma's 90th birthday party in the Concorde, she lived on Ada Holmes Circle.
