[kj] OT : a southern sky

[bongo]

yeah that was one of my concerns, so i rung and explained the
situation, saying that it could be an issue... the guy said that they
emergency services were so busy at the moment, and wait until it does
become urgent... the call was being recorded, so at least there will
be a record of it, so if they shit does hit the fan, i feel better
knowing that i did what i could... the storm is meant to peak at
midnight tonight, now almost 3pm... the roof of the house is making
disturbing rumbling noises now as well, but it was only re-roofed a
month or so ago so it should be okay! fucking exciting!

=)
