The all new "Where are you today?" thread

[Tipsy Gipsy]

I am at home ill, like. 

I have obviously not washed and dried 2 loads of washing or been to the food palace ahead of the anticipated 20 cm of white stuff expected over night tonight.

Meanwhile I am eating 'humble pie'.

That tells us a lot about your browsing history. . . .

There is a green budgie here called Skittles, he has a giant cage but I also have a travelling cage for when he comes with me down the motorways.

Today and for the next few days I shall be setting out the pages for the next issue of the Village Magazine.
This involves working from lap-top (www connected) to PC (not internet connected) so I have two screens and two keyboards to work on. I keep typing on the PC keyboard when I mean to use the lap top and wondering why nothing appears on the lap top screen. 

Ah well! Onward and Upward! 

Snoopy does it Rick Wakeman style

I work in a world something like that. Following on from the major tea meets laptop incident of a month or so ago I now have a laptop on the desk with an extra keyboard. This means that the laptop is no longer conveniently portable.

Anyhoo have just returned from a meeting regarding the setting up of a community web site. We have been awarded some funding so can now go ahead with the plans drawn up thus far.

A Facebook page will be up and running by next Tuesday.

Just debating whether to go and clear the drive of snow or write a rather harsh email to Angela Smith and Nick Clegg.

As Snoops said Onwards and Upwards.

Home, no delays, no queues, no struggling vehicles, just two lanes of black all the way. I didn't expect that

At home awaiting a telephone call from a Doctor.

So, as is seemingly par for the course now, the whole SEVERE RED ALERT weather warnings have been completely ott and grossly exagerated, causing panic and distress nationwide.

The check out gerl in The Asda last night told me that shelves were virtually stripped bare in anticipation of all this shite on Thursday in response to the virtual DON'T PANIC  non event of the decade.

The red alert was only issued for one little bit of Wales, the media chose to conveniently omit that "minor" detail

Anyway...

Doesn't really matter then ey?

haven't you found all this reporting a tad over the top ey?

For JC's sake, just how TF did we cope back in the 60's when most didn't have c/h, and car heaters were an extra in many cases?
I clearly remember the winter of '62. Now that was PROPER snow that was.
Did the schools close for instance?

Did they bollox.

This cuntry is just a nation of headless chickens squawking and running around in a blind panic.
Lost the plot completely and thouroughly embarrasingly shameful.

They even had a full half hout 'SPECIAL' on bbc n.w on the bad weather last night ffs!   

I nearly launched the tv out the window, i tell you!

In answer to your question, yes, totally over the top. Of all the idiot comments I heard from the media the one that rattled me the most was some reporter referring to the gritters and their drivers being "Road warriors"       They're blokes/women doing their jobs ffs

They were itching for us to fail, which is reflected on the BBC main page for England today which reports on the chaos at Heathrow, but strangely nothing about how the roads remained clear
