There was a decided thump. It just stopped flying in mid air and dropped to the floor when the light went.<br /><br />It wasn't harmed and we put it on the plants under the veranda for the night.<br /><br />I certainly didn't think that would happen though!<br /><br />viv in nzknutty knitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00325560883289908412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313028.post-81830926266242867022010-06-23T09:12:21.225+01:002010-06-23T09:12:21.225+01:00Oh, you live in a heavenly place, Gretel!
