G'day guys,
Just read this: http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDN65152.shtml Thought it might apply to a few of you blokes Penrith/Richmond way, Large hailstones heading your way apparently. Best to get your beasties under cover.

i was at work at lane cove luckily. so if we copped hail out here, i didnt get it.
and i'd be doubily p!ssed if i caught it. cause i got caught in the last hail storm. and my car was 50:50 chance of write off. right on the boredline. but they went with repair. so any more damage would kill it. and i just spent a heap of money on it now that its getting fixed up again!!! :
