Here in downtown Woodford Green ,suburban Essex,we clocked up

The thunder was long roaring sound that seemed to cross the sky

Well I guess I didn't realise there was some pretty active weather
observing going on right near me in Woodford Green!

I guess this is quite an old thread but I am so surprised to bump
info a fellow WG-er that I feel ought to post!

BTW have you heard about the plan to sell off the library land and
try to redevelop the old building near the tube with the money?
They are currently (Sept 2005) discussing it in this Yahoo Group.
