Folks,
I'm not here to take the gloss off of any storms or the like.
Ever been on a roof trying to hold down a bit of roofing iron, while trying to nail the thing back down?.
You would not get a builder up on a roof in these conditions.
Back in 1998 I nearly had my head cut off by an errant piece of corrugated iron that flew over my head during a storm here.
It removed the visor from my helmet, that I had tucked out of the way.
You folks may have heard me talk about "Twist-Nails".
They are far superior to Lead-head nails and they NEVER pull out!.
What's more is the fact that they are Hot-Dipped Galvanised.
What really scares me folks is when you see EHV insulators and towers bent up or on the ground, considering that they were 150m in the air before the storm.
The power of nature.
It just goes to show how Man has got in the way of Nature.
