@Mo34 Crikey! I would have had to change my kecks after that

Cor, it's windy out! It's bin day in Tubbsland and someone* in our street's wheelie bin has clearly toppled over, for I can hear tin cans clattering. Making a right old racket they are! Looked out the window just now and saw rubbish strewn across the street.
*Quite possibly ours, but I'm not going down there in my nightie to chase after it all. ðŸ™ˆ

depressing weather

Merritt · #**2073** 12th January 2023, 13:41

^^ Thinking back to the time I chopped up a dildo and put it in the rubbish, I'd have had a sleepless night if I heard a bin topple and didn't investigate

Tubbs · #**2074** 12th January 2023, 16:28

^ I remember your 'chopping up a dildo' story Mezza, it was an SAUK classic!

genovese · #**2075** 12th January 2023, 17:34

Crikey Mo.

I remember that chopped up story!

Dougella · #**2076** 12th January 2023, 18:52

I remembered a story about a certain item being put in a bin, but not the chopped up bit

Ronnie_Pickering · #**2077** 16th January 2023, 16:13

NOOOOOOOO Snow and Ice tomorrow. 5 days of fridge weather.

Edit: I guess I should buy a heater.

Ronnie_Pickering · #**2078** 18th January 2023, 10:53

the snow is falling. If I was so motivated I would post a picture.

Edit: attempt, but camera can't pick up the falling snow.

Stepford · #**2079** 18th January 2023, 14:09

3.9 degrees. Deckchair weather.

Ronnie_Pickering · #**2080** 22nd January 2023, 14:43

weather- this is your offering? A downcast day. Who wants to walk in that? Come on man.

Ronnie_Pickering · #**2081** 29th January 2023, 01:26

Soon? Itâ€™s 6 months away!

Stepford · #**2082** 29th January 2023, 01:56

^^ Same here. The flat I'm in now is really cozy most of the time so I don't need the radiator on in the bedroom (other rooms are heated). What the heck is a snood? Oh one of those, I used to used one of them when my neck was really painful. I'd rather be warm than cold...

Tonight it's a balmy 3.8 degrees here.

Rocket Spud · #**2083** 5th February 2023, 10:31

It looks like Spring outside. Tempted to open a window...

It did, I found it a bit nippy in just a t-shirt.

I like watching tornados.

Ronnie_Pickering · #**2085** 19th February 2023, 12:38

judging by outside summer has arrived. But... it's only February.

Dougella · #**2086** 19th February 2023, 13:37

^ Spring maybe!

Mo34 · #**2087** 19th February 2023, 14:40

It's lovely out

Well it was if I hadn't spent 30 mins trying to get (drive) out of my village.

It's getting beyond a joke now.

Gonna take the dog for a nice relaxing walk in the sunshine with not a car in sight

It was. I've spent the last couple of days shredding papers that we collected over the years. Pretty depressing. I spent ten minutes or so in the communal garden for some air and time out.

Ronnie_Pickering · #**2089** 27th February 2023, 08:48

Screw these cold mornings. I'm here with a hot water bottle at 9am... Next year I'm getting a place with damn double glazing.

Ronnie_Pickering · #**2090** 6th March 2023, 09:58

booo snow on the way

SpectralOwls · #**2091** 6th March 2023, 10:24

I don't think we're getting snow or anything here, but holy cow it feels so cold. I just want the freezing weather to stop so I can garden again!

Consolida · #**2092** 8th March 2023, 10:46

It's snowed here.

Counterpoint · #**2093** 8th March 2023, 11:02

Just opened my curtains. It's so beautiful I'm going out for a refreshing run. Not sure there's enough to make a snowman though...

biscuits · #**2094** 8th March 2023, 18:52

It's been snowing on and off round here today. Brrrr.

Mr. Nobody · #**2095** 8th March 2023, 21:17

It was -8 this morning when I was heading out to work,...eventually.

My kitchen door was frozen solid, so it took me ages to get out of the house,
When I eventually did manage to get out, my car was SO cold, it wouldn't even start,
I had to pour buckets of hot water over the bonnet to try and warm the engine enough to allow it to start.

Urgh,. I hate trying to get out and about when it's this cold,
But it looks good, plenty of sunshine and clear blue skies.

biscuits · #**2096** 8th March 2023, 21:23

^ woah! Scotland is extreme!

Has your front door ever been frozen shut before? Imagine having to call up work to say you can't go in today because you can't open the front door.

Dougella · #**2097** 8th March 2023, 23:21

^^ And there is the reason Scottish people are so strong. Us soft southerners would definitely given up and not left the house in those conditions!

Where I am we've had nothing but a tiny bit of sleet.

I'm quite handy, so I screwed a big pull-handle onto it and got both hands on it and kept pulling till it finally opened,

it happened last time the temperatures went into minus 8 or 9 so I had an inkling it was going to happen again.

I managed to finagle a big strong pull-handle from my workplace the day before ,

Ronnie_Pickering · #**2099** 10th March 2023, 05:50

What.the.heck is this weather?!

Dougella · #**2100** 10th March 2023, 10:21
