He's obviously got his head screwed on, that one! :lol:

You should introduce him to puzzlebrains. He might do better than me!

Well that would certainly explain some of the odd messages I've had from Gill in the past... :)

As fernando has just told me it is 'snegging it down' outside at the moment. (Russian for snow is pronounced 'idyot snyegg'). Hopefully we'll get snowed in tomorrow! I could spend the day working ou twhat the numerical order is.

On Friday there was at least an inch of snow in Budmouth Regis - and snow is almost unheard of here. Usually we get a light dusting that I usually refer to as 'a hard frost'. But this year it's been the heaviest snow that I've seen since I moved down here in 2000. And it was worse in the rest of the county.

I remember thick snow on several occasions when I was living 'up north'. Particularly the heavy snow of February 1991. That year, there was a very wet June (I can only recall the 9th being a dry day) and August was very hot.

Are you seriously telling me that you can remember what the weather was like on 9th June 1991?? I'd have trouble telling you what the weather was like two weeks ago!

I do have a reason for remembering it. It's not every day you reach voting age.
