Saturday 10th August
Two days after a sunny trip to the beach, my man was astonished to learn that a house in Fairlawns (the estate where we used to live) had been struck by a bolt of lightning during a tremendous storm. I had had a premonition that something awful was going to happen, and I had dashed straight out without packing anything. Of course, that was nine years ago, but you can't be too careful!
