People trying to force their way out are generally BMW drivers. They can spin.
and van drivers, and big expensive 4*4s and on my way to work there is a really expensive private school - if you're rich enough to send your kids there then you're rich enough to wait.

America is currently cold. We get it.
Heard some guy on the radio this evening from Canada, that said the local Met Office there had issued a weather warning yesterday for 'Life Threatening Cold", but saying today was better because it was only minus 14

I give a fixed amount monthly to Macmillans and St Mungo's but got pissed off when I just gotta call from their fundraisers trying the really hard sell to get me to up my donation.
Undoubtedly a deserving cause but I can't give any more - but would they take no for answer

I was unfortunate enough to be in front of the tv at the gym to see the press conference about Michael Schumachers accident. It went roughly like this
Assembled media: So he was off piste? Prosecutor: Yep AM: Whos fault is that? P: We cant really say AM: Were his skis allright? P: Yep AM: So it wasn't his skis that did it? P: Did what AM: How about his helmet, was that allright? P: Yeah Fine AM: So it wasn't his helmet that did it? P: Did what? AM: How fast was he going? P: Dunno AM: It was that rock that did it then. Is the rock going to be charged with attempted murder? Was there a grassy knoll anywhere? Was there a sniper? A Bulgarian with a poison tipped umberella?
ME: OH FOR FUCKS SAKE, IT WAS A FALL WHEN SOMEONE WAS FUCKING SKIING. IT HAPPENS TO ANYONE WHO STRAPS FUCKING PLANKS ON THEIR FEET AND PROPELS THEMSELVES DOWN A SLIPPY SODDING HILL. CAN YOU JUST ACCEPT IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT YOU COCK JUGGLING THUNDERCUNTS.
Sky news - BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!! French prosecutor doesn't know how fast Schumacher was skiing.
Its not news. It may be breaking but it ain't sodding news.

My flight was cancelled so I've gotta spend the night in Zagreb. I had to endure a 3 course meal with the other 5 transfer passengers, they put us all on the same table. Awkward as fuck.

1 German (nobody spoke German), 1 Serb, 1 Croat, a Bosnian (he was alright) and then the crossbreed that is me. A recipe for disaster, mostly an hour of cutlery jangling together.

The cost of holidays in the school holidays  And of course you can't take the kids out of school because of Michael Fucking Gove. Makes you wonder if he's got his hand in the pot of a travel company or five.
