    It is falling heavily here in Sub-Tropical Luton. I am going to be magnanimous and tell the elves that, once they do the post and any little urgent jobs, they can bugger off for the weekend. It looks like it is going to snow for at least 24 hours! I am a good boss.

    Mrs Wide is working till lunch time, then coming home before the trains are totally FUBAR. The girls are at school; missing the snow in the garden. I have just taken too long to go to the Doctor and get back because every Mofu has decided that today is a good day to be out. How come there is more traffic when we're told not to drive? :confused:

      Mrs Wide? Would she appreciate that particular nomenclature? Did the Doctor indicate your dietary problem? (ie too little gin).

          Easy does it here in Chavtown. A few millimeters are on the ground. It looks quite pretty. Abart 'arf an 'our ago I saw a robin on the fence between us and the school playing field. Now, that was a pretty sight. :)

              About the same here, but it has now picked up swirly pretty white stuff all over the shop. I have just called 'er and said she should consider getting home if it keeps up.

                    We had a Robin here yesterday. Well, we had 9/10ths of a Robin, the cat brought it in sans head. If you are into making home-made 3D (slightly gory) Christmas cards I can retrieve it from the bin and send it to you?

                    If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.

                        Never mind the robin and what the puddycat did, are the "girls" in the CP typing pool okay and accounted for?

                                    Trust me, I am not going to dig the bin out of the snow, dig the bird out of the rubbish, take a photo and put it all back! It's the whole bird or nothing! :laugh:

                                          PS add a Venison Burger and some Turkey Drummers and you could make a nice 'Slightly Gory Christmas Triptic'. You could eneter it in the Turner Prize! :thumbsup:
