Is Fox Farming a nocturnal occupation? And do they spend all day thinking of ways of fooling you, the wily little feckers? Probably digging their way out now, under the cover of fog..

I'd say milking them is a right pain though.

Sir Arthur Daley

There will be an orgy of people in the morning driving around with the fog lights on that they forgot to turn off from tonight :mad:

If you want to see fog, or rather man-made "smog", look up pictures of Britain back in the 40s/ 50s, you couldn't see a bleeding thing.
I remember my gradnmother telling a story of her cycling around the streets of London in the thick of it, where seeing what was in front of you was very hard when she a bellowing voice from only a feet away " Are you alright luv". There's some great pictures of it on the web.

I just stood outside in it, its lovely, all swirly and mysterious, can almost breathe it in.

My dad told me something similiar once. Says he was in a fog where you could barely see your hand in front of your face. Must ask him where this happened. He was in the arse end of Scotland once when he was younger. Nothing but fields. I always assume thats when it happened. Must ask him.

But I would love to be in that :pac: Has to be one of these rare events.

Anybody saw the film "the fog", its pretty creepy.

I remember the smog back in Dublin, when your snot would be black on bad day, don't mean to be gross but its true- thank god for smokeless coal.

Wild dose of fog indeed, a good night for peering in lassies windows and taking panties from washing lines

dan1895

The fog here is Phileas.

cloud493

It was foggy yesterday morning, cleared right up.

Drivinh home from work the other night, I had to drive through this stupid fog where you couldn't see more than 20 metres in front of you but I could see the moon!

Sir Arthur Daley

Fog again tonight and ants appearing everywhere are we in for a good summer?

Hopefully there is none on monday or the yank tourists will be thinking that mysterious celtic foggy ireland is always like this

Joe Doe

prob needs its own separate thread....
but the fog appears to be causing serious problems in aviation also

from the Daily mail:

"Top Tory donor worth £500million 'among four killed' after helicopter crashes in thick fog near his Norfolk stately home
Lord Ballyedmond, also known as Dr Edward Haughey, is reported to have been on board the civilian helicopter".

Joe Doe

Am sure most may be aware Lord Balleyedmond, 70, is a Northern Ireland businessman, (owns Haughey Air Ltd) with an estimated personal wealth of £500m.
He is/was believed to be the richest man in Northern Ireland.

A strange thing is, spotted a chopper like this doing circles for about 15mins in the North maybe circa 2pm, not sure if related to this incident (i.e. if it went from his place in Down - over to England then maybe was returning shortly after etc).
