[Spikey M]

Bollock status - moist.

[Magic]

Is it just me or has it went from light at night to pretty dark all of a sudden?

[Spikey M]

Nah, I've noticed it. Feels like we've lost an hour of light in a week.

[Shindig]

It's dark by the time I'm half-way home. Slightly annoying.

[John Arne]

Massive flooding here in HCMC. Annoying.

Somewhat amazingly, it's also raining inside the most prestigious (and modern) office building in the city...

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Got this cracker at work this morning-

[Magic]

Yeah was pretty cool. Fucking cold then it's warmed up again? Hopefully this is savage winter.

[Foe]

83 Fahrenheit in the woodlands today. I burned my bald

If you're not in America then go take a long hard look at your life.

[Danny]

Texas is he not?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Must be, Scotland has never hit that high.

[Shindig]

This storm that the South moaned about has now ht us. I'm a little concerned by the sparks coming off the power cables in the street.

[Magic]

It was -7C this morning.

[Spikey M]

It's absolutely wanking it down out there.

[Giggles]

Clearing windscreens in the morning is such a pain in the ring.

[Magic]

Heated windscreen.

[Giggles]

Heated windscreen.

I must drive the only Ford in the world that doesn't have one of those

[Raoul Duke]

Looks like Japan is going to get fucked up again: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-38059371

[Magic]

Live stream?

[Shindig]

Deary me. I was on tenterhooks the last time Fukushima was in bother. Nobody wants another Chernobyl. Russia's putting a lid on that this week.

They were quick off the mark with that one.

[Shindig]

Giant lead lids on rails are expensive, apparently.

[niko_cee]

It seems to be even windier here than it was for wee Angus the other day.

[Magic]

Cooling in reactor 3 has failed.

This storm that the South moaned about has now ht us. I'm a little concerned by the sparks coming off the power cables in the street.

24 hours later, my power is finally back on.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I had to clear ice off my car twice today, TWICE.

Fuck this weather in the cunt.

[Shindig]

I had to pry my wheelie bin open with a knife.

[John Arne]

Just coming to the end of the rainy season here, so it is as muggy and clammy as all shit.



Now that people don't really use CD's anymore... what do people use to de-ice there windscreen?

[Giggles]

De-icer.

More to the point, CD's to de-ice a windscreen??

[John Arne]

CD cases, rather.

[Queenslander]

Brisbane is 35 tomorrow meaning it will be hot as fuck before 8am. North Queensland is in the 40's which is what they deserve.

[Giggles]

CD cases, rather.

You just mean as a scraper?

You need one of these.

[Jimmy Floyd]

The train people seem to have decided to down tools as well, just too cold to bother apparently. The single train that ran this morning was so jammed full of schoolchildren that I probably unwittingly fondled enough boys to make Barry Bennell green with envy.

[Magic]

Unwittingly indeed.

[John Arne]

You just mean as a scraper?

You need one of these.

They didn't have those fancy gadgets when I were a lad.

[Baz]

I just pour hot water on it.

If your car is getting frozen throughout the day, you're living in the wrong place.

[Kikó]

This morning's walk in was carnage. I'm sure I've only just regained feeling in my fingers. Better than the wife though as she's said the same as Jim with the train station closed, everyone is packed onto the bus. Thanks Sadiq.

[Giggles]

I just pour hot water on it.

Cold water.

I just leave cardboard on the windscreen over night. I really need to make sure the next time the boss has me looking at cars that I get one with a heated front.

[Waffdon]

It's mild as fuck here. 9 degrees when we were in the taxi on Saturday just before 11pm. Lav it

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I just pour hot water on it.

If your car is getting frozen throughout the day, you're living in the wrong place.

I got back to my car at half seven though (fuck Tuesday's, 9-7 is so gay) so it's not like it froze during the afternoon.

[Raoul Duke]

Pouring hot water on iced-up glass is a recipe for it shattering

[Yevrah]

Clearing windscreens in the morning is such a pain in the ring.

Is it? I just chuck a bowl of water over the windows.

[Giggles]

Is it? I just chuck a bowl of water over the windows.

I use the cardboard since and it works a treat.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I scrape.

I almost lost my right index finger to frostbite this morning though so I've ordered some gloves and this scraper:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/ICEPLANE-Tw...ds=ice+scraper

It's the number one scraper.

[Spikey M]

I can't decide whether to aim a joke at a tiny frost bitten hand or a tiny glove. Either way, I'm lolling, so carry on.

It's the left that has been dubbed (falsely) a Beadle hand by Lewis, keep up.

[Spikey M]

Triggered

I'd get the morning off work, if not the whole day.

[Magic]

WEATHERBOMB alert. Christmas eve/Christmas day/Boxing day going to be fucking horrendous apparently.

[Magic]

Holy shit yesterday was mental driving down south with rain. Today is supposed to be 10x worse and I have to drive back through the anus of storm Barb.
