Damn the weather!

In all the papers…and all the telly news….temperatures are set to plunge to below freezing overnight ….and forecasters predict heavy snowfall in the next three days.

Yeah…you see I don’t actually think it’ll be as bad as all that.

They’re going bonkers about it in London…cos they don’t get snow outside December or January.

We can be April or May.

Come to Scotland …where the crappy weather never ends.

I can’t see Visit Scotland going for that one somehow can you.

Besides…that’s not what I’m saying…I just mean we can get all 4 seasons in a single day…at any time of the year.

Yesterday was the prefect example. I think it might be like that for a bit…but that’ll be it.

Yeah…I know….caption….24 hours later….and it’s the set from ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ out there.

I said to the missus yesterday..."You know…if it is bad…to hell with it….I’ve risked life and limb at stupid o’clock for close on 15 years driving through the snow from Deeside…stuff it…this time I’m going to stay at home with you and the boy….."

"Aye ..forget it…" she said…"there’s only one wage coming into this house. I’ll harness up the huskies myself if I have to."
