25°C two weeks ago, now it's snowing. Is it going to be a hard winter or a mild winter?

(Bis) I suppose I ought to say something, being ex-Met Office. Well, mild or cold, FIIK.

Come on Rosie, you can do better than that. Where's your experience from previous years, observation of migration patterns of sparrows, wind direction causing bunion growth, modern glaciation etc etc to say nothing of the advanced abacus climate models?

The Met Office's Abba Cuss has been given over to accountancy. Helen Willetts will continue to suppress giggles on Radio 4. Tomasz Schaffernaker will say "cunt" on air and become "A" list. An inch of snow will cause widespread points failures. Points mean derailments. What do points mean?

Belated MHR for Sat. last, Rosie.

(Duj) Many thanks mate. Trombones abundant.

I have a riddle: If you're going down a river at 2MPH and your canoe loses a wheel, how much pancake mix would you need to re-shingle your roof?

3.

[KagomeShuko] *Holds hands about 3 feet apart* This colour.

(KS) At least 5 foot 8.

[KS] Fish

[KS] If it's the roof of your mouth we're talking about, the answer is to change your brand of pancake mix pronto.

Merry Christmas everyone at MC5

Happy Christmas and especial thanks be unto Rab, Rob, Dan, Dunx, Jim, Rich, Wild Pants, Yoz and all the other hosters of international silliness.

(SM) Hear, hear.

Also, what Rosie said.

Merry Christmas, all!!!

I bought this CD by U2, but I want my money back. It never told me how to dismantle an atomic bomb!

Ha well you'd have thought that a spy plane would know something about it. But on further investigation it's written by a bunch of Irishmen, a nation not known for their atomic status nor for spying prowess.
