It's back to being boiling hit so probably more in the way Saw it on the news, marble sized hail stones. ....we've had some pretty big storms here mate, tornadoes, funnel clouds aswell, the tornado has done some big damage, and the hail stones have been the size of tennis balls..... the weather man said, they can fall up to 100mph in speed, you want to see some of the cars after a hail stone storm.....

A few years ago they had a freek hail storm at melton and my mates car looked just like that ...his golf looked like a golf ball! ..poor fecker had only had it a couple of weeks . it's very common here every year, mid/end of july and the beginning of august, my truck got it, so it's got to go in and be put right........ my mate has his own company here, dealing with hail damage, he makes a fortune, he buys the damaged one's cheap as chips, he's got these machines that get the dents out without braking the paint work, by time he's finished a motor, it looks brand new again, earning him a healthy profit, i feel sorry for your mate, it's heart breaking seeing your motor dented up......
