With all the news on TV lately about the extreme weather conditions

affecting the East Coast of the US, the mud slides in the Middle East

and South America, along with the dire predictions made by such films as

The Day After Tomorrow, we shouldn't forget that England has its share

of devastating weather too.

 

I've attached a photo illustrating the damage caused to a friend's home

from a storm that passed through Southern England last night. It really

makes you cherish what you have, and reminds us not to take things for

granted.
