    Dublin maxed out at a 9 on the Beaufort scale yesterday. Palo Alto maxed out on an 8. https://www.windfinder.com. So, mildly windier in Dublin. An 8 is "gale force" at 62-74 kph, a 9 is "strong gale" at 75-88 kph. In Brighton, which is the station I checked in the UK, the Beaufort was also an 8, the same as Palo Alto.

    Therefore, I am no more of a pussy than Shinners, and only a slightly greater pussy than Giggles. But then again, your entire country comes to a standstill at the sight of snowfall, and the London Marathon last year made news for taking place in 24 degree temperatures, so I still win.

    That's some serious flamping but you've seen the figures and you've been outed as not knowing the difference between miles per hour and kilometres per hour you absolute mong.

    Have I? I’ve been talking kilometers/hour this whole time, you seem convinced I’m talking about miles.

    Well unless 70=130 then I'll stand by the statement.

    Yeah you've quoted all my posts but I still don't know what you're trying to say. 70 = 130 in particular is a riddle to me. Are you trying to compare Palo Alto with that alphabet soup village in the highlands?

    I'm comparing where I live to where y'all live. I could pull up stats on Mount Washington and one-up you a final time, if you'd like.

    I took the shell off my racing snail hoping it would make him faster, but it just made him a bit sluggish.

    Where on earth do you live then that you could walk to the Dublin city center in under half an hour?

    You could probably knock a couple of hours off that for when I build up speed on the downhill bits.

    We've now had about three hours of horrible, wispy snow this morning. Not the fun kind that crunches underfoot, it's the kind which turns into slush immediately and ruins everyone's day.

    You could have been right. Sallins is about the same general distance from the city centre.
