I think Putin is actually a pretty chilled guy but the UK Government and media like to use him as the excuse for the increase in energy and fuel prices to shift the blame away from themselves :)

Are you sure he's not Bill Gates in disguise, intent on starting a war to somehow increase his exchange profits?

Bill Gates is working with Betfair/Flutter to make cashierless shops so you won't be ignored by the cashiers any more

Rant in advance: how many idiots in my neighbourhood are going to leave their bins to get blown away in Friday's storm and scatter their contents all over the road?

Tough luck! ;-) Our 'Bin-Day' is a Tuesday, so hopefully all the windy stuff will have gone by then! That said, sometimes the binmen spill enough to make you wonder whether its worth putting it in the bin in the first place anyway! LOL

I think he's counting on the storm to dispose of it. I'm half-minded to attach a label with his name and address on it.

It's here now, six hours late. I thought it was a Michael Fish in reverse. :)

Still ot arrived here (Chesterfield) but the forecast for the last few days has been all over the shop.
The LIVE coverage has a video of planes struggling to land at Heathrow. Fair play to the pilots!!

She's turned up. It's a bit lively now. Can't imagine how bad it's been down south from here. Hope everyone is safe.
