    So everyone's pissed off about this weather, the bus's in the city are slightly less reliable than usual and those in rural areas are being forced to eat their livestock and their children just to survive.

    But that's not all...
    For one thing, it's fúcking b-e-a-utiful outside. Even all of you pessimistic Peter's out there can see that the white-out all over the country really is breathtaking.

    So maybe, the roads will get worse and you'll miss work or you might go a few days eating only Heinz baked beans and Jacobs cream crackers. Maybe you'll even get a concussion walking home from the pub (or that one could just be me) and maybe the world really is coming to an end ahead of Nostradamus's 2012 prediction.

    But can we all try and break our national stereotype and go out and actually enjoy the bitterly and beautifully different weather. Go with your mates, your kids.... hell even your dog if nobody else likes you. Either way, cut out the Goddamn whinging!

    Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go make a snowman with my dog.

    I had a snowball fight with a bunch of kids earlier and then laughed as they tried to sled down a hill on a Mary Harney election poster. What a weird image, especially when they went arse over elbow and went flying into a bush.

    I am going out to make a snow vampire now. I bought two red eyeball shaped gobstoppers earlier just for this occasion and I have a set of fangs as well.

    AND my beer is cold without having to leave it in the fridge. Win win!!

    I had to google that to find out what it is and I can confirm that I'm 99% I don't have any of that. I do however have some Perrier Jouet Champagne and Wild Iranian Ossetra Caviar for when the beans are gone.

    You are right. It's very bright out and you can get snowblindness, so wear some sunglasses people!
