Lightning and thunder woke me this morning at 5.30am.....this photo was taken at 6.30 am after the sunrise...more thunder and lightening and then rain...the sky looked magnificent.

It was our turn to host  the "Cheap and Cheerful" get-together tonight...nibbles and champagne at our place and then we walked (some drove) to Pizzaca restaurant for a delicious meal ...then returned to Alice Street for dessert and more champagne and wine.
