OMG!!!!

It will be the end of civilisation as we know it. People without a clue
will suddenly have the urge to eat babies and drive their cars on
totally unnecessary journeys into the nearest snow drift just to watch
the carnage of mass hysteria and panic buying of OxO chicken cubes on
TV.

What I don't understand though is how the TV crews manage to get there
before the lemmings, do they know something we don't? Are the weather
forecasters keeping vital information from us?

Oh, I'm still jolly positive, despite what might be termed a Trying

Not our fault if you fail to observe the "leave the bike in the garage"
advice in the thread title, is it?

Oh, yeah, 1997...summer on fire...*that* seminal album.

Who are they again?

The odds on a white Christmas in Paris have dropped today. It's a
nightmare out on the roads, so I'm staying in, in the warm. :-)
