ERAKORDSELT TUGEV TORMITUUL paar päeva tagasi tõstis aiatoolid lendu, me maja tuulealusel küljel. Just siis, kui Lilliga rahulikult elutoas hommikukohvi jõime. Lilli kargas püsti, karv turris, madalahäälne urin kurgus, olles valmis tooliloopijad rajalt maha võtma. Tehtagu ainult terrassiuks lahti ja lastagu loom välja! Aga tolle päeva kevadtorm oli tõesti erakordne. Kogu Madrase org põldudelt üleskeerutet tolmu täis. Mul oli tarvis linna minna, aga rõõmustasin, kui tervena koju tagasi jõudsin - autot oli raske teel hoida, igasugu sildid ja prügikastid lendasid. Tõeline kaos. Õhtuks võttis torm tuurid maha, jumal tänatud.

WE HAD HORRRRIBLY HIGH WINDS couple of days ago. The whole town of Madras along with Madras Valley was wrapped in brown dust and stuff was flying around like you wouldn't believe. On the photo: those chairs have never been 'flying' because they are on the east side of our house - out of prevailing Western winds. But this early morning the chairs took a flight. Just when me and Lilli had coffee in the living room! Lilli got SO mad. Was more than ready to see off whoever was throwing those chairs around :-)
