With all due respect, what on earth are you on about?!
-
Glad I'm not the only one who internally heaves when they see someone doing that. Rank.
-
Yep, far from a fan but the clip has been taken way out of context.
-
I'm not sure "decent" is the right word to use.
-
It's alright, the emergency committee are meeting in a couple of days...
-
So the only official government action so far to contain the virus amongst the general public is tell us to keep washing our hands? Is that the long and short of it?
-
I called it. Another discussion to consider the previous considerations
-
Strangely, I had one of the worst chest infections I've ever had over Christmas. Completely ruined the festive period for me.
-
Apparently roads are running freely in and out of the "quarantined" regions too. It seems that the Italian version of a quarantine is very different to elsewhere.
-
So today's COBRA meeting will consider options. I fully expect a further meeting in a few days to consider the considerations. Then a final meeting to implement watered down versions of the considerations.
-
...and it would still be dark at 9am in December, no thanks.
-
From the sounds of it, the Italian "quarantine zones" are anything but quarantined.
-
Yep. You also only need to see the number of people who ignored road closure signs during the floods to realise that a lot of people we co-exist with are brainless.

What Did You Think of Winter 2019/2020?
Nick L replied to BlueHedgehog074's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Probably the worst winter I've ever endured. Although I was away for the sole snow event down here. Just a non-descript, depressing mushfest. -

Yep, it's been a pain in the backside. Walking anywhere is often triple unpleasant this season: It's mild, drizzly and windy most of the time. Today is a perfect example. -

Off on a road trip around the North Coast 500 in NW Scotland next week. Desperately hoping I can muster a few snowflakes on the mountain roads up there. -
Wow
-
Pretty much calm now. But what a cracking day of weather, easily the weather highlight of this wretched winter.
-
I don't think that comparison is at all fair. Bungee jumping and sky diving is done under far more controlled conditions with risk assessments performed. I'd argue the chances of being killed by either of those are miniscule in comparison to going out in the sea in Force 11 winds and then expecting the emergency services to bail you out. Seeking adrenaline is one thing. Being a pillock is another.
-
My guess is not a lot.
-
A surfer missing in Sussex has been found alive. Great. Now they can send the moron a bill for the callout for his stupidity.
-
Loads of trees coming down around here... Yet it barely warranted an amber warning of course
-
That's the fella that'll bring the worst gusts as it moves southeast. Needs to be watched.
-
Will be like playing with one of those plastic footballs you used to use as a kid...
-
Not seeing anything to suggest any changes. The worst of the winds across southern Britain will likely be later this afternoon with a squall line expected to move through. Expecting sporadic 70-75mph gusts inland between 15:00 and 18:00.
