Cold down here so assume it’s basically Alaska up there. Some Geordie attention-seeking knobhead will still be walking around with his beer gut out I’m sure.
Topless would be stupid but there’s definitely a difference up here where we just get on with stuff and don’t whinge about the cold like the Southerners. At our home games in the winter we turn up with polo shirts and replica tops and the Southerners turn up like they’re on a North Pole expedition. It’s as embarrassing as the Newcastle lads with their beer guts out.
I've converted the Mo Salah song for when they visit next... (Clears throat) More salad, more salad, it's gonna make you thin. La la la la la la not a Burger King. Thank you.
It’s 4 degrees in London and 3 degrees where I am up North. I don’t feel cold, the word I like to use is ‘fresh’ and that’s a good feeling. It certainly ain’t cold yet. Not for me, anyway.
Snow has started falling in parts of the UK, as the country braces for a week-long cold snap. South-east England will see a mix of snow, sleet and rain during Monday, BBC Weather says. The Met Office has warned of ice and snow across southern England and Wales later, which could cause travel disruption. Flooding could also continue, mainly in central England, the Environment Agency said. The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for ice for southern England and southern Wales, from 15:00 Monday until 03:00 on Tuesday. It warns that ice and small amounts of snow "could lead to slippery surfaces in new places" and potentially slower journeys. Lol
My old man bought a skip hire business in Cornwall and in one of the first winters down there he woke up to a smattering of snow which barely covered the road . So went to the yard loaded up a skip and set off to do the weekly swop of full skip for empty at a hotel . When he gets there the the owner says "what you are doing here" turned out by their standards it was a blizzard and everyone just battened down the hatches .
