Thunder, rain, hail

Wow-what a variety of weathers today.
I sat in the car with my grandson whilst the heaviest thunder storm and rain that I've ever known passed over.
We did venture out after to go swimming-I suppose we could have just got out of the car and got equally wet.
It certainly brightened up later and before heading off for a game or two of badminton I ventured into the garden for: I'm afraid another flower shot!!
