ReplyDeleteHaving fun? LOL
ReplyDeleteWe had a LOT of lightning and thunder here above Amsterdam as well. Almost daily past week. I usually love it but I wasn't too happy when it woke me up a few times...
OK Gledwood paste the link with all the facts....lol...Thankfully the last time I had a Mcdonalds was about 20 years ago. Thats another great thing about your blog its so informative on so many subjects. Takes a lot of time and effort so thanks x
ReplyDeleteHey guess what? you've been Schmoozed!!! see my garden blog.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog. Yes, both Chinese and Indian music use microtonal scales, but the western twelve tone equal temperament is becoming popular throughout the world, so the music you heard might not be microtonal or could be an Indian scale that is close to twelve tone equal temperament. Actually, our modern tuning system has only been around for a few hundred years, so every every country has a history of microtonal music and many still use microtonal scales.
ReplyDeleteThis weekend we had a couple real boomers, love the rain and storms in general...while your out could you get me some fries??
ReplyDeleteIt's the first time I've seen a thunderstorm in writing. Very imaginative...hope the Macca's burger was worth waiting for.
ReplyDeleteOur thunder goes...ominous rumble, rumble...CRACKKK! and then I have to be peeled off the ceiling...
Wonderful noises! I like the pinky plonky dinky donky best.
ReplyDeleteYou know if The Weather Channel would do 'blow-by-blow' weather they way you do, I might actually pay attention. :-)
