Melting, Melting, Melting!

Well it seems that the weathermen only got two out of three right with their predictions this week as I'm sure we didn't get 4 inches of snow last night. Heck I'm fairly sure we didn't even get 4cm. However they did have some problems down south with over 200 people stuck on a busy A road having to be rescued.

Of course this prompted another round in the media of " Lets find a scapegoat" for all of the transport problems that have occured this week. Many of the more outspoken critics are continually pointing out that no other country seems to have problems like this with snow. However what most of them seem incapable of admitting is that all these other countries unlike us seem to get snow on a regular basis so they've had to invest in large scale support systems to deal with snowfall on this scale. The last time we had snow fall this bad was 19 years ago. Yes we could go out and buy lots of snow ploughs but it's not exactly a good use of money if there not going to be used for another 19 years.

Still it was the last 'official' day of my holiday today so I was making as good a use of the time as I could do. The time seems to have gone so quickly, it really doesn't seem like it's been a week already.

I have been able to get most of what I wanted done, so I'm pleased with that because it would have been all too easy to loose my mind to the evils of daytime tv :-)

The snow around here is slowly melting much to Owens disappointment as he's been having great fun the past few days routing round in the snow having a great time. Hopefully he won't find his walks too boring once it all melts.

Oh the new Torchwood trailer for season 3 looks ace and also a little creepy. The best bit had to be where an entire school yard full of children suddenly comes to a stop and then simultaneously all start saying " We are coming, We are coming." A close second to that bit has to be where Gwen comes flying out of the back of a ambulance gun in each hand firing.

Anyway,

Later folks!
