    I totally agree with you. As I walk along the road avoiding the sad ranks of people staring at their phones, I despair. I guess the human race are like rats. They'll keep breeding until the food runs out and then they'll turn completely on each other. The Atlantic fronts will survive though!

    Because we live in a dumbed down celebrity culture of Simon Cowells (never the first to know its raining is he, at least I'm keeping a vague grip on the meteorological wheel.) Sad but true JennyJane. Religion is no longer the opium of the people, it's the Kardashians and the likes of Graham Norton earning multi milionaire salaries. God help us all. And I'm an empirical agnostic.

    It shot off very quickly across the North Sea to rattle some tea cups and coffee shop windows in the Benelux. I wouldn't fancy the North Sea ferries too much

    I always remember that as a strong Easterly with a low over Italy.

    Yup UKMO downgrade and the buttons are off in you know where

    Gay lightning! Who'd have thought it (puts on deep voice and handles shaving foam)

    Good food to buy if you have a head cold. You may have lost all sense of taste but it doesn't matter!

    I've always been impressed by Greggs. It takes rare culinary genius to create food with absolutely no flavour whatsoever. I doff my floppy Chef's hat to them

    I want no more leeks in my roof John, cost me a fortune already

    I see Dominic Blizzard has just put Plymouth 2-1 up against Port Vale in the FA Cup third round replay. Let's hope he's not the only blizzard scoring in Blighty this winter.

    I've got the third damp seepage into my bedroom this winter now. They've already taken away the chimney stack after two days of scaffolding (replete with satellite dish which never worked again upon replacement) and it's looking like a case of "make room for the mushrooms" again on the inside of the wall which resembles a fungal Jackson Pollack. . Now I know how the Brontes caught consumption. No vertiginous heating bills thus far but plenty of other financial weather induced outlay. Bring on the cold.

    Hi Biensie It's a forecasting system used by UKMO (the Met Office one) since 2012 (the latest and greatest purportedly.) I suspect that it too is picking up on colder options.

    Nice one JennyJane, as someone who has been in more hospitals than Richard Chamberlain recently I am very pleased for you

    Hammering it down with rain here at the Bridge, had to hold the brolly over my Indian takeaway. Don't fancy Chicken Rogan Slosh

    A lot more Muslims though

    Perhaps the winner should be the contestant who can make the golden word "Birmingham" from his four letters.

    I've got a four fingered Kit Kat in the fridge. No calm I'm not going to do the Joan Collins joke.
  23. Canalboy
    I'm fingering a bottle of Hennessey VSOP here myself. Although in this case it could stand for Visible Snow 0 Percent
  24. Canalboy
    Sir Jack onionse in residence here too. I've seen more snow in David Lean's Lawrence Of Arabia
  25. Canalboy
    Yep I'm in the Mellon building opposite Blackfriars Station and it seemed to be heavy - nothing -heavy - nothing. Nothing settled though.
