Whoosh!

That was the sound of another week flying by... G's doing holidays-at-home this week. Traditional pleasure - cooking a huge pile of curry, and then eating it with beer and a DVD. This time, daal sabzi (green split peas with vegetables) and The Incredibles (in Hindi with Hindi subtitles if you wish :-) G's going to our local independent beer retailer when they open again this evening, to restock.

Whilst up the village for physio and pills, I chatted to the local The Big Issue vendor, who was on a bus in Sparkbrook when the tornado struck! The driver stopped, and the bus waved from side to side whilst bits of trees and advertising signboards flew past. It all died down again within a minute or two, but the wing mirrors of the bus had been ripped off, and the engine cover dragged open and bent.

I've not seen any maps of the affected area, but it appears to cover Kings Heath, Moseley, Balsall Heath and Sparkbrook.

I have a mental imagine of a dish full of curry and beer, with DVD sprinkles.
