Thumbs down

Had one going intoAGP on Xmas eve morning.
6000` over the MAR vor, WX radar showing moderate rain with windshear, the hail started then there was an almighty bang and flash, all systems ok.Informed ATC, the usual response from the Spanish, Keh!
The exit point was the outboard cowling of the No1 engine, lots of rivets and fasteners were welded to the cowling.
