What's the weather doing where you are?

But why would you ring the bell of your own place...? 

To see if he was at home I would think

Just got back and had me.... breakfast.

That was the trip of me lifetime up 'me 'ill this morning!

I was the first one there, and the snow depth was unbelievable...well I've never seen snow that deep before. Not a flamin' flake of the stuff in sight when I left here at 07:00.

Firstly I got the car stuck in the car park. 
Fortunately the farmer that comes to unlock the bogs had a Disco, so managed to drag me out.

Then, the walk.

Took me just over 2 hours of struggling through monster snowdrifts. I actually managed to trip over snow, and ended up face down 2' under a snowdrift.
Felt a bit like drowning I suppose. I was panicking a bit granted cus there was no one else around, but the adrenelin presumably kicked in and I forced me way out like. Bloody frightening experience though. Must have looked like a bloody snowman. Absolutely covered.

On the way down I heard this loud creaking and then a snap. Great big branch fell about 10' in front of me with an almighty thud. Scared the living shit out of me.

Any'ow, I beacame aquainted to e Robin, who sat on my hand! I was staggered how tame it was, really. All good animals together ey? He could obviously sense me warmth and friendliness.
One of the 'warmest' moments of me year that was.

Got back, and some twonk had parked right in front of me, and the car wouldn't go backwards due to the ice.
1 hour later and I finally managed to get out to be confronted with abandoned cars scattered all over the place.

Any'ow, I'm going back up there tonight for midnight,...full moon too... but with the off roader this time.

Oh but it was, THIS is what life should all be about. Bit of adventure and all at one with nature like.
I feel most exhilarated tbqath.
The snow was totally virginical...is that a proper werd like?
If I can fathom out how to down/up/whatever load these piccies off me phone, I'll show yous all.
Never seen anything like it in this country before, never.

was a bit on the nippy side btw, and being soaked through after me snow bath didn't help like. Even had snow down me gruns ffs.

Excellent!

I really am envious ..... but I suppose I have had my time at doing such things. Fond memories of them too.

My favourite "me'ills" have always been the Brecon Beacons .... walked/marched/stumbled all over them when I was younger. Glorious times camping up there for long weekends, frying up brekkies over a primus stove and falling into a pub late on Sunday evening for a couple of pints before the trucks picked us up to return to RAF Hereford. Sorted the men from the boys I can tell you.

You don't see many people up there that's for sure.

Chomskyan linguistics, beginning with his Syntactic Structures, a distillation of his Logical Structure of Linguistic Theory (1955, 75), challenges structural linguistics and introduces transformational grammar. This theory takes utterances (sequences of words) to have a syntax which can be characterized by a formal grammar; in particular, a context-free grammar extended with transformational rules.
Children are hypothesized to have an innate knowledge of the basic grammatical structure common to all human languages (i.e., they assume that any language which they encounter is of a certain restricted kind). This innate knowledge is often referred to as universal grammar. It is argued that modeling knowledge of language using a formal grammar accounts for the "productivity" of language: with a limited set of grammar rules and a finite set of terms, humans are able to produce an infinite number of sentences, including sentences no one has previously said. He has always acknowledged his debt to Pāṇini for his modern notion of an explicit generative grammar. This is related to Rationalist ideas of a priori knowledge, in that it is not due to experience.
The Principles and Parameters approach (P&P)?developed in his Pisa 1979 Lectures, later published as Lectures on Government and Binding (LGB)?make strong claims regarding universal grammar: that the grammatical principles underlying languages are innate and fixed, and the differences among the world's languages can be characterized in terms of parameter settings in the brain (such as the pro-drop parameter, which indicates whether an explicit subject is always required, as in English, or can be optionally dropped, as in Spanish), which are often likened to switches. (Hence the term principles and parameters, often given to this approach.) In this view, a child learning a language need only acquire the necessary lexical items (words, grammatical morphemes, and idioms), and determine the appropriate parameter settings, which can be done based on a few key examples.
Proponents of this view argue that the pace at which children learn languages is inexplicably rapid, unless children have an innate ability to learn languages. The similar steps followed by children all across the world when learning languages, and the fact that children make certain characteristic errors as they learn their first language, whereas other seemingly logical kinds of errors never occur (and, according to Chomsky, should be attested if a purely general, rather than language-specific, learning mechanism were being employed), are also pointed to as motivation for innateness.
More recently, in his Minimalist Program (1995), while retaining the core concept of "principles and parameters," Chomsky attempts a major overhaul of the linguistic machinery involved in the LGB model, stripping from it all but the barest necessary elements, while advocating a general approach to the architecture of the human language faculty that emphasizes principles of economy and optimal design, reverting to a derivational approach to generation, in contrast with the largely representational approach of classic P&P.
Chomsky's ideas have had a strong influence on researchers investigating the acquisition of language in children, though some[specify] researchers who work in this area today do not support Chomsky's theories, instead advocating emergentist or connectionist theories reducing language to an instance of general processing mechanisms in the brain.
He also theorizes that unlimited extension of a language such as English is possible only by the recursive device of embedding sentences in sentences.[citation needed]
His best-known work in phonology is The Sound Pattern of English (1968), written with Morris Halle (and often known as simply SPE). This work has had a great significance for the development in the field. While phonological theory has since moved beyond "SPE phonology" in many important respects, the SPE system is considered the precursor of some of the most influential phonological theories today, including autosegmental phonology, lexical phonology and optimality theory. Chomsky no longer publishes on phonology

Red X on your piccy Snoops.

Get yerself an off roader wheelchair, and I'll push you up the bloody place! It'd be so good to have some good company up there sometimes to share its delights like.
