    Its only fooking snow, FFS, not the fooking end of the world.
    Or did you forget we all lived in Northern climes, FFS!
    Who'd have thunk it, snow in an island off Europe

    Fix some snow chains to your fooking cars, buy some fooking proper boots, get a warm coat and get on with it, FFS!

    Fooking yoof of today, don't know they're born, FFS.
    bluddy heck

    one minute he's telling us to start planting palm trees and buy the sun factor 3000, next minute he's having a go at us becuase its snowing.

      Tell you what though. Next time you want some stats rigging, sub-contract the work to the IPCC, and they'll do a good snow job for you.

        The last I heard, they are too busy doing some graph-wrangling for a Mr G. Brown.

        I also heard on the grapevine that they have sub-contracted some fact-benderooni work to a certain SG whose job it is to explain how black is white, up is down and the merits of opening your egg at the pointy end

              I encountered at least 3 snowflakes on my afterlunch stroll through central London.

                Do said merits apply to Creme Eggs too? Or is it best to gobble them up whole?

                  Just as well I left when I did.

                  3 hours to get home. M1 north of J25 is down to 2 lanes because of the snow. Most of the slip roads and junctions are snowed over.

                  Took me 90 minutes to do the 10 miles from J30 of the M1 to the A1. Lots of abandoned cars, jack knifed lorries and others just stuck on hills unable to get any grip.


                  Currently 8 inches south of Doncaster and still coming down.

                    Creme eggs are bad for the planet. They consume valuable non-renewable resources to produce and they contribute to the destruction of the Amazonian rainy-egg forest. I have a model here, what I wrote yesterday, that proves that all creme egg eaters are holocaust-deniers and cretins.

                      Think I'm in an area up to 16inches predicted and being called an 'extreme weather event' if it happens. Been snowing already but very lightly, I'd laugh my ar** off if I wake up tomorrow to find <1 inch.

                      So when is global warming going to start?
