What are the
disadvantages of having your office window
only directed to the north ?
-you have no idea what kind of clouds are coming from the south!!... it is very bad when you go to work by bike!!!
Some explanations:
Trustfull seing the blue sky in the north i decided to go home that day. I picked up my bike and turned the corner of the building.... That is the moment i did the huge mistake. I saw the very dark clouds far awayand though: "mmmmuuh it it still far enaugh i have time to reach the house". Yep, but it was without being avare the wind was getting stronger and stronger, i was going towards the storm.....
***********Suite in the next episode! ********
hehe
Half the way home (exactly at the place where Sofia lived before in Fontaine), the rain begun, slowly stronger and suddenly heavier.... i had just the time to reach a bridge to protect myself.
we were 3 people stuck under that bridge... at least i was not feeling alone...
Flashes of lightnings falling all around us, heavy rain bumping the rocks around, thunder striking the highvoltage wires at less than 30 m from the bridge i was, strong wind blasts, hail (big balls of ice) ..... what an apocalyptic view....
After praying +/- 30 min there, a slight lull occured and the rain was lighter. So i decided to go. But again i had no luck and the storm got stronger a few minutes later....with no other bunkers nearby....
The hail begun bumping on my head, no hollow sound appeared, at least that comforted me .... ;)
My shoes were tranformed in swimming pool. I discovered it is very impermeable (or that the amount of water falling on it was bigger than the amound of water leaking from it.... must have been that!)
I finally reached the place, fortunately the electical portal was opened (there was an electricity cut!!!!) but both my flatmates were on the window seeing me arriving and laughing a bit!! they came back by car...
I just wang my tee-shirt and run to take a warm shower...haaaaaa
MORALITY:
In the future i will avoid to tell Sofia that i am going to the swimming pool when she says she goes to the beach in portugal.....
