Gladwin was leading worship tomorrow and we thought we’d drop into church a 5 PM for a practice session. I dozed off a little in the afternoon, but woke up at 4.30 PM and we were ready to go. We noticed that the skies were starting to darken and soon big drops of rain were falling. Ouch!! We waited for 5 minutes and the rain seems to let off. We got on the bike and 30 seconds into the journey, we felt the rain start off again and scooted into a parking lot to escape. Within seconds there was a strong wind and windows were shattering as they banged on the shutters!! We just about escaped it. Five minutes later it stopped and we decided to risk the 10-minute journey to church. We sped away and although there was a light drizzle, initially we reached quite dry!
Mebin was waiting for us and we pluygged in the mikes and the guitars and just as we started practising, the skies broke up in a spell of heavy rain that was deafening!! We’d just escaped it. There was a lot of voltage fluctuation and practice was quite scrappy, but we went through all the numbers in dim lights with the amp misbehaving most of the time! Towards the end of the practice, the rains let off again! Gladwin and I managed to reach back dry!
Hm…. who controls the weather?!!
Her’s a satelite pic of the day – there dont seem to be much clouds in south India…Hmm…
