The only problem I have is knowing which one to drive?

It wasn't just me that helped you undecorate, y'know I'll add new decorations to the list of things to buy you next december, though.

Well name and shame, as they can then be added to the list of people who I can't trust to stay in my house without wrecking it or destroying my possessions.

Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
But the Misfits are so delightful,
And since we're going crazy to know,
Will it snow? Will it snow? Will it snooooow?

According to the BBC Weather Centre, Glasgow's outlook us thus:
  • 0900 Thursday: Clear Sky 1*C
  • 1200 Thursday: Partly Cloudy 2*C
  • 1500 Thursday: Partly Cloudy 1*C
  • 1800 Thursday: Cloudy 0*C
  • 2100 Thursday: Moderate Snow 0*C
  • 0000 Friday: Moderate Snow 0*C
  • 0300 Friday: Moderate Snow 0*C
  • 0600 Friday: Light Snow -1*C
Thusfar, Predictions looks reasonably accurate. This morning it was 0*C (according to Zeus) and clear with icy roads. Right now, it's 3*C outside (according to Zeus) and it's just beginning to cloud over as we come up to 1200 Thursday.

Well done BBC - I'm looking forward to snow later then. In fact, I think maybe a night-time drive is in order!!!

Currently -14 C here. Most of our previous snow melted, so we just have this year's snow. Did everyone survive the ringing in of the New Year?

Oh the weather outside is icy
I really could eat something spicy
But work is so glum
Oh hum oh hum oh hum


Its actually snowing here right now. In fact the roof of my mini is now white.



To be honest, its melting as soon as it touches the ground (the snow that is, not the mini)

Oh Come on Mike, I can see my breath in my office... and my wall heater smells funny - like burning asbestos or something. Why'd'ya have to go and rub in your never-ending heat?
*Shakes fist*
If I ever get my hands on you... I'll poke you with popsicles until you're as cold as I am right now!

Hey wait a minute...
*Idea forming*
It'll be cold in Aussie Land June/July. Therefore, I can rub in how nicely tepid it is in Glasgow when... wait, what a rubbish plan.

Popsicles it is then.
Just you wait.





Just you........ wait.
