Hi I’m Charlotte, I heard about the tornado today and I can’t believe it. Yesterday was our carnival day in Soham and while me and my mates were marching in the parade Ely had a tornado. To be honest if we had a tornado in Soham and I saw it I would wet myself in fear. I’m going to say ‘I’m so sorry to anyone who witnessed it’.
