Well is that isn't fear mongering then what is ...?
As you may have heard the UK has have the beast from the east upon us. Call me skeptical but it seems to me the media is implying something else but this, conditioning us to fear what comes from the east! Sorry just don't trust anything from the propaganda media in the UK.
I'll give them the face we had snow though! Not the most horrific storm they made out (as always). This is what we got:
Ok so writing this the day after! Russia (no sorry their not implying that the media don't do things like that, do they) The 'Beast Has struck'
I take back the previous comment about them getting it wrong. Although they have blown it out of proportion saying the country is going to run out of gas. But the weather is shocking but still only a few feet deep! My journey to work:
It started out OK!
Then got a bit worse but I survived nothing major.
Then we hit the town where the gritters had been and it all seemed calm. The but was forty five minutes late but hey do!
Never see this road so quiet.
Then I came home.....!
The wind was getting up and was blowing a hooli. I got off the bus and all seemed calm although bitterly cold. Ok ok only -6 but for us Brits that quite cold you know. The road to my village looks a touch different from here!
Yes I bounded through like a spritely young thing I once and was and DOWN I went! Up to my waist. I admit I was a touch er... well here in the UK we say I dropped a brick. It took me 20 minutes to walk this stretch that normally takes three.
But I'm home a whiskey and some Joy Division on the record player. And its warm. Same again tomorrow but the sounds of it.
So of my previous ramblings:
Walking In The Shadows of the Dam Busters....
Who is Simon and Abbey Visitors Walking On Water...
