[Lost Leopard Spot]

Snow, and lots of it apparently, is about to cover the UK. (except for parts of Greater bishville where rain is on the menu)

the Met (based in Exter, Bishville) is predicting a humungous lashing of arctic snow drifts in Devon measuring (some experts predict) quite possibly as high as 4cm....

I'll be getting my Nitromors out again. Bunch of fecking amateurs at the Met Office never get it right and we're about to spunk something like £96m on them a new computer.

My method's best. If you can see the top of the mast on Winter Hill then it isn't about to rain. If you can't then if it's not raining already it's about to!

[thebish]

I can't see the top of the mast on Winter Hill - it must be about to rain!

[thebish]

maybe the met office do it on purpose to piss of you folks in the North - but my Met Office local weather app is usually pretty darned near spot on!

That's because they're located in Bishville and only have to look out the window.

...towards winter hill!

Well that's usually the case.

[Lost Leopard Spot]

I can't see Winter Hill, never mind the mast... it must be lashing it down.

[Bruce Rioja]

Ah but you live under a storm cloud anyway.

The same one as me.

Hoboh's lot said there'd be consequences to allowing gay weddings..

Does Hoboh worship at the Westboro Baptist Church?

[Lost Leopard Spot]

It snowed here about ten minutes ago. Most of it melted almost instantly but there's a drift composed of a brace of hail by the back door.

edit: we have a snow worrier at work (there's nearly always one). He's already agitating for us to go home early so he doesn't get stuck in half an inch of snow by Friday.

Ah, they're virtually indistinguishable then. The WBC said that that helicopter crashed into the Clutha Bar because Scotland had allowed gay marriage.

Anyway, it better hadn't snow. I've to drive across Ireland tomorrow and it's difficult enough as it is!

Never driven across Ireland, but I've crossed it by train a few times, east to west ( and back) years ago. Memory dims, but Dublin, Mullingar, Athlone, Claremorris I'm pretty sure was the route. We were headed for Knock in County Mayo where we had relations. I remember Ballyhaunis and Kiltimagh being "just around the corner" as the Irish say for anything up to ten miles. I was pretty young at the time but it seemed a hell of a long train ride. We did both Liverpool to Dublin and Holyhead to Dun Laoghaire. Don't envy you that trip.

I've a meeting in Dublin in the morning then have to drive across to Killarney for a meeting there on Thursday morning. The drive's easier now than it once was as the motorway now extends as far as Limerick. The first time I did it was really nice as I was taking it all in. Now it's just an annual bastard-of-a-drive there and back. Killarney's its own reward though. Lovely little place with a cracking hotel (Killarney Plaza) and a magnificent fish restaurant (Foley's), so it's not all grueling.

I don't mind Gays, play fair I just didn't see the need for them to hijack marriage when civil partnerships were open to them.
