SNOW SPECIAL: CANADIANS OFF AGAIN

Another Canadian laughing at us.

Not original!

You carry on love. I'll just snuggle right down here on my settee and watch the telly whilst enjoying some nice buttery toast and a hot toddy, and you go and shovel off your drive and 'get on with it'.

Sucker!

that rant by Heather
is just the meteorological twin of the classic Pete n Dud one-upmanship routine, which ends with "oh yeah well we used to live in a hole in the road and be thrashed every Saturday night with a razorblade".
I noted her dig at Australians too.
Yes we know it's hotter in Libya and Ethiopia. Am I supposed to ignore my broken leg because somebody, somewhere has two broken legs?
jeez.

Hey, sunny, calm and 1C here today.

I can't imagine hot right now, but sunny and calm we have too!

My outdoor temp monitor says its 5.9c, but that's because it's in a patch of sun at the moment; it is colder than that - I can tell because I have to de-freeze the birdbath every hour and when I do, the cold outside stings my eyes.

Brace yourself for another snow emergency story.

As I write in snowy Stoke-on-Trent it's snowing hells bells. Not normally a problem - The Potteries have sailed through the last week with few problems. Except one. The grit has run out. Already I can see the snow settling on the main road nearby, and if that freezes overnight, then ...

... then do not go out Stoke-on-Trent. I shall watch the telly for updates.

It snowed heavily here, stopped, and melted away.

Weather takes no prisoners.
Floods, storms, heat, cold, mudslides, earthquakes, California and Greece have bushfires, Dubai has dust-storms.
We all need to build our shelters in ways which really do SHELTER us from the fact that we are all hurtling through outer-space in the pitch-dark clinging to a revolving mass of molten rock.
A CAVE somewhere sounds sensible.

The radio just announced a piece of shit has been charged with arson here in Victoria.
I hope the cops kick him senseless before the Mag slaps his wrist.
