    Wonderful. But looks like a swede at the top. And they’ve been in the EU for 28 years. ;)

    That’s a breach of my copyright. I demand royalties.

    Quoting Dorothy Parker elsewhere on these boards reminded me of a Robert Benchley quote. Having been dispatched by his newspaper to Venice, on arrival he sent them a telegraph:
    “Streets full of water. Please advise.”

    I notice this on a BBC weather report:

    “Less severe yellow ice and snow warnings cover much of the UK.”

    Always a concern. :emoticon-0101-sadsm

    Ours is still severe - until 10:00am, when presumably it will all melt.

    Then it starts again with an icy blast at 3:00pm tomorrow - coincidentally kick off time against QPR. <yikes>

    It was a pretty chilly wind in the part of Hertfordshire where I work. Then the sun would come out and it would be warm; then sun in, very cold wind… A weird day.

    I've got no idea what this gadget is or what it's supposed to do, but the effect is hilarious...
