Landys get hit by the storm.

we were on our way from Double island point back to our unit on Saturday when the big hail storm hit the sunshine coast, we missed the hail by a matter of seconds we think,

we just drove down the road wondering why everyone was pulled over and had a few broken back windows, then a few seconds later saw hail the size of cricket balls laying in the grass surrounding the roads,

makes u wish car parks had taller roofs to fit in the 4wd's

but then I grew up in Qld in the 50's/60's so am used to this type of summer,hot, humid and a thumping storm about 4-5 pm;)

Qld. in the 50's/60's?.....Yes, I was going to school in Toowoomba at that time, I used to ride my bike to school & back every day, & my bike had a Miller Dynamo light set fitted. I remember riding home one day ( & yes, it would've been about 4.00pm!), got caught in a hail storm, which created a large dent in my beautiful Miller headlamp.
Cheers, Pickles.

No damage to the Landy's this morning.

Chequer plate and roof rack helped protect the 130.

The Perentie well its hard as nails....;)

About time that car got dirty ;)

We got hit hard in Dayboro too, these pics were taken at work just as it started. Luckily my little van didn't get blown away :D
