Here's a nice bit of Italian storm for you.

This happened when we crossed into Italy for the first time and made driving a little difficult. Was pretty cool though, if you like storms.

I thought that there would be damage to the paintwork after the noise the hailstones were making.



Oooh, and where were all you hardcore hood down people then? eh? Double standards I call it. :whistle:

If I recall correctly, Clive, at the time of those hailstones, Sheila and I were sitting in the Trattoria near the apartment in Brezzo di Bedere, after a great meal; wondering where you all were?

If you'd stayed with the group you too could be watching the video and reminiscing. ;)

Gianluca and the TF Italian passion group requested a photo montage of our trip, so if participants would like to send me up to 20 decent photos each, I will put them together to send to them.
Thanks.

Also...
To the Italian invaders.
I have purchased and parcelled the mugs for the Italian TF Passion group. The parcel was uplifted yesterday for delivery to Gianluca Torini. If you wish to contribute to the cost, pm me.
