  18. Off to the Mid Hants Railway tomorrow for War On The Line, and some Ropley footbridge research!

  19. This is a crisis. A large crisis. In fact, if you got a moment, it's a twelve-storey crisis with a magnificent entrance hall, carpeting throughout, 24-hour portage, and an enormous sign on the roof, saying 'This Is a Large Crisis'. A large crisis requires a large plan. Get me two pencils and a pair of underpants

  25. What is it about the prospect of snow that turns people into complete morons. One night of snow does not mean you need to buy 37 pints of milk and a gallon of soup!

      I agree - it doesn't mean you need to buy 37 pints of milk - at least 40 is required just to make it through tonight :D :D :D!!!

      Being honest, I saw about 5mm of snow & did say to my wife that surely the UK must have now ground to a complete stand-still!!!!

      On the bright side - if it carries on over night that means snow angels with the boys in the garden or park tomorrow!!!

      Yes morons is very apt,this is the northern hemisphere we have winters, it snows... just listen to the BBC talking about expected cancellations at heathrow.. its the nanny state all over.

    4. charles2

      charles2

      My personal view is it's a bit of snow & it's chilly - get over it! Don't get me wrong - I don't say go out for the hell of it, but if you need to go out then go, just give yourself more time and act sensibly!

       

      And yes, yesterday I did buy a lot of milk (24 pints!) - but in fairness that's what about covers our household for the weekend!! Monday will be another 24ish pints for the rest of the week!!!
