Beefsteak 305 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Don't you swear at me, it's a South African shirt!! I bought my self one of each of the great Rugby playing nations a few years back , except 2, Argentina , on principle and Australia for obvious reasons!! Still got, England x 2 , Ireland , Scotland , Wales , South Africa , New Zealand and Tonga. I gave the Italian one to an 'eye tie' I met on holiday (Big lad like myself!!) in Tunisia, he gave me a box of 50 King Edward cigars (Fair trade!!) and the French got thrown away after I wore it to paint the kids bedrooms in a few years ago!!

Beefsteak 305 Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 I finally cleared all the ice off of my car yesterday. It suprised me how much there was in all the nooks and crannies, only to get up today to see it covered again !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
firbeck 860 Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 They were telling us yesterday that we were getting the snow, looks like Notts, Derbys and Lincs copped it instead, how could they get it so wrong! Went out on site today, it wasn't too bad until the render fell off the wall despite a large additive of anti-freeze, the temperature dropped so much this afternoon that we were just going through the motions, the last couple of days I've stayed at home in the warm to sort out some planning, except of course, those mollycoddled local authority scum won't go out on site visits when it's like this. Like the beard Ian, it definately suits you, Den's right...............'Christmas, my aaaarse' Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fynger 841 Posted December 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 Its now snowing AGAIN Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beefsteak 305 Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 It was forcast for a lot of snow over here this morning and through till tomorrow (I'm driving to Nott'm!!) But all it's done is rain and melted most of the snow that we had . It's still raining now , I just hope it doesn't freeze over night!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
katyjay 5,091 Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 Not sure if anyone wants to hear this or not, but I'm telling anyway! Went to daughter's house in Phoenix for Christmas and it was 76 deg. No, I didn't think you'd want to hear that. Actually it was strange to see Christmas everywhere and summer clothes.
