    I've got the fully charged laptop but I'm lacking the usb modem.

    I'm sure it's a lot more intense outside.

    Should we snuggle too? That might help.

    The novelty hasn't worn off yet, buzzing around the M50 roundabout yesterday chatting to a friend on msn, I was well chuffed :D

    Gah, will the weather hold like this til tomorrow morning lads, I have to be up at half six :(

    Course we'll snuggle.

    Wouldn't mind a bit of that to be honest, the modem that is:D
    I remember I first used wireless on my laptop. Nearly vomitted with excitment.

    It's kinda bleh here now. Really windy, but yeh... I'm not sure what Im expecting to be honest. Anyone getting any thunder/lightening? That would complete this.

    Ah I see... didn't make the correlation with blown, it's rarely used in passed tense.

    Aye, the storm then. Not much really, I was hoping for death and carnage tbh.

    I thought I saw a flash earlier, but nothing followed so I may have just blinked.

    Seems to have died down a bit here, for what little it was (compared to what we might have gotten at this point).

    It's still too bad to go out looting the destroyed storefronts, so I'll have to loot my own house instead.

    *loots cat's food bowl for sustinance*

    Take your bed in off the balcony. It may help.

    Holding down the fort here in Clontarf, live near the seafront, and she's starting to brew up.

    Really hope this doesn't fook with me Sky dish, as i'm on midterm and stocked up on supplies from Tescos, so this storm was one big excuse for me to lay about the couch and veg.

    Mike, you're English, right?
    We don't get storms as bad as those in England.
    I think the English people are still trying to get over Michael fish getting it so wrong in 1987. :)
