Mmmm, Not Sure About This One.

Chris Evans | 10:06 UK time, Wednesday, 24 November 2010

The snow is a comin' and I see it in my head as a huge gentle white blanket wafting it's way down South from Scotland and below, waving like one of those huge flags at the opening ceremony of some rather important sporting occasion or other.

That's how I want it to be, but then I think about the wave of cold front that follows in its wake. So for all the fun and prettiness it is sure to bring - pay a visit or make a phone call - and check those more infirm or less able than the rest of us have what they need for the next few days. You know it makes sense.

Now, I'm off to try and not break any bones BMX'ing. I fear the worst.

    Morning Chris and the gang

    Snow. It was snowing on 16th December 2009 when Nic and I first met. It was still snowing when I moved in with him in February. That's a lorra snow!

    I don't mind it, as long as I can stay fairly local. Being a big girlie coward I hate driving in the stuff.

    Not feeling 100% today. Spent half the night downstairs on the sofa so as not to keep my man awake with my incessant barking coff coff coffing, so feel really tired as a result this morning, and a tad on the achey side.

    Ashes tonight, so it's duvet on the sofa and settle in for a late one.

    Whatever you're doing - enjoy it!

    Morning Chris,

    Wise words Chris, I have already given my parents a lecture as they are due to drive to my brothers in the Midlands at the weekend.

    Earlier this year in the snow I rang a couple of oldies from church to see if they wanted anything, but they'd all been out and got it themselves - they're a hardy bunch!!

    I'm not convinced that the snow will reach this far south, that is Kent. The 5 day weather forcast says that it's going to be really cold but sunny. However, I will get myself prepared just in case.

    Morning folks :)

    Peterborough's got a sleet shower at 0600 tomorrow. But the rest of the time it looks fairly good (except the cold) Although when i looked monday it said naff all about the sleet *sigh*

    I don't mind driving in it . . it's just the other (insert own word/s here) drivers on the road that worry me.

    I remember a good few years ago i was on M25 south section (between 5-7) and there was snow on all the lanes and i was doing about 30 ish in me lorry when this parcel carrier lorry (orange coloured and means explosive) came stonking past me, few miles up the road he was off the road *blank look*

    Steve :-D

    Hi Chris: yes, I agree: when the snow first arrives, how lovely it looks. And then it turns into a nightmare - hate it, hate it! We do certainly always keep a look-out for our nearest neighbours, but thankfully they seem to be ok.

    Chris, I met up with the lovely Mary last night and she returned my book to me - very kindly signed by you! Thank you, you are a sweetheart!

    Hello!

    I've just jumped out of my skin cos a starling has flown straight into my office window!!

    Now it's just sitting in the hedge looking very dazed indeed. I hope it's going to recover! Don't really want it to expire right on my window sill!

    Wish i could come to the quiz tonight - bet you have a fantastic time!

    I don't expect we'll get a bad snow fall but take care all of you who do xx

    Chris and Jonny - be careful today! Honestly, I've seen the damage a 12 year old got on his first visit to the BMX track (luckily no breaks but he's still got the scar!)

    Hope to hear you bright and early tomorrow

    Good Morning CLP & Everyone.

    Very cold here in Wirral and gas check just done.

    I still get excited when I wake up and see snow just like I did as a child. And then the reality hits me, it's either going to turn to ice or slush. And I can't use my scooter in the snow or ice.

    So I think I might hibernate until it passes.

    Afternoon CLP, no snow here in Edinburgh yet, though the 大象传媒 is promising a light snow shower around 18.00 and then a snowy weekend so we'll see!

    Day off work today and tomorrow, it was a real struggle to get up this morning, so am going to potter about at home this afternoon once I've done some food shopping.

    Hope everyone has a good day, be careful on the BMX CLP!

    Wednesdee 'andshakes From A Far Ter CLP & ALL...

    Bingo Star 'ere...

    CLP - Yes am fully prepared, a got some new tyres for me front wheels on me car last week as they were RIGHT on the legal limit of becoming not legal!!!!!!!!
    A was already sliding all over the place everytime a took a roundabout flat!!!!!!!!!
    Only problem a got me new tyres.... and decided ter test them for the first time on a greasy roundabout.... a turned the wheel... but me car kept going straight... 'eading terwards the railings... all in a split second....
    It's just luck that am born te rbe a racing driver & got natural racing driver reactions >>> Instead of panicking as a understeered into the railings ter 'ave me front end ripped off.... a didn't brake as most would... no... a lifted of the accelerator... and steered terwards the barrier.... fighting me whell left.. then right.. then left ter scrub me speed and allow me front nearside wheel ter stop sliding!!!!!!!!!!
    A managed ter miss the barrier by inches... (about 8 if a got out with a ruler - and that's close).
    Ave never crashed a car but a couldn't understand why me new tyres were so bad at gripping... then a thought tyres pressures!!!!!!!!

    A later checked me tyres pressures & the NUTTER who fitted me tyres at the garage... 'ad put 55lb in me nearside & 45lb in me offside tyre!!!!!!!!!
    They should be 26 ter 32 at the very most!!!!!!!
    So me tyres were like rocks... 'ence very little grip on a greasy road!!!!!!!!!!

    Me point 'ere CLP... am not boasting but one it good ave got split second natural reactions... just like the best racing drivers... and the most important point.... if yer prepare for winter... be VERY careful if yer get yer new tyres fitted in Birkenhead!!!!!!!!!!!!

    a also dropped me oil changed me filters: oil; air & fuel on Sundee when a 'eard the cold weather is getting colder... so me car is all set for any severe weather!!!!!!!!!!

    Soz am getting carried away 'ere... a only mean't ter say ter all... make sure yer car is ready for winter!!!!!!!

    As for the BMX gig... don't worry if yer break all yer bones.... looking on the brightside if yer slip on some snow or ice... there'll be nowt else ter break!!!!!!!!!
    Good luck CLP & Jono S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Bye!

    Hi everyone:

    Just having a wee catch-up:

    FOM: hope things are ok.

    CSN: sounds like you were having the evening from H*ll. Hope you managed to get to the fridge for that glass of wine!

    Gail: I did like your egg story!

    Rosie/Annie: re the "big wheel" in Edinburgh - been on it once, terrified the life out of me. The gargoyles on the Scott Monument, I swear, were laughing at me every time the wheel reached the top of the Monument. Never, ever, again!

    mtd: very, very envious, but in a good way! Hope you have a great time tonight.

    Cheryl: miserable for you - I am always relegated to the sofa when I have a cough! Hope you feel better soon.

    Sezza: hope the wee bird will be ok - what a shock it must have received! A couple of years ago, there was a gull that landed in the lightwell outside our office. He seemed to be ok, but I was so distressed to come back to the office after the weekend, and he was still there. The RSPB came out and caught him in a net, the poor wee soul!

    Hope everyone is ok.

  • Comment number 18.

    I have a question on scarf etiquette. Having finally worked out how to tie one properly (it's taken almost four decades to be honest with you ) - fold scarf in half, then push straggly end through folded end - I now need to find out whether the looped end should be on my left or my right. Or even if it matters.

    Please excuse the slightly idiotic tone to the question - I think the cold weather is playing havoc with my brain. This morning I had a minor issue with excess cistern bubblage caused by an overactive cleaning block of the `bloo' variety, so overactive our bathroom looks like we're hosting a foam party each time you flush. I removed the cistern lid and cleaned off the overspill with toilet paper, leaving the cistern gleaming and free from unwanted streaks of blue chemical.

    Then I flushed the paper away....

  • Comment number 19.

    I'm so glad to hear I'm not the only one with the scarf problem.

    I've got a drawer full of scarves, I've tried many different ways of putting them round my neck and over my head and they all look wrong. Now given up and just put my hood up if it's unbearably cold.

    Hello All,

    Thought I'd pop by and look round the door while I've got a few minutes.
    I love the snow and everything it brings with it. I would settle for the sunny but cold days that Ali mentioned though.
    Anything but rain for me.

    Currently sat/sitting on a train bound for Marylebone, where, on arrival, I shall be heading off to meet Misstoedipper, Alexgirl and.......oh bugger! I've forgotten (but another wonderful blogger) to watch the recording of the R2 quiz.
    Thanks again for the ticket Alexgirl.

    Take care you lot

    Evening to you all,

    Nothing here yet ,in fact it's been wall to wall blue albeit very ,very cold.
    I have purchased some bags of salt over the last few weeks and put them to one side ,purposely for the use on the pathway as last year the supermarket didn't have as much as a salt cellar full when I went to get some .Hence I am prepared this time .

    Will be writing more card this evening ,I like to get all the cards written by the end of November as to leave December free for the other things.

    Hope all is well with you all and {{{hugs }}} to them that need them .

    Evening - better late than never lol.

    I was up at 6:30 this morning to go for a field trip with work - thankfully the closest we got to snow was a little bit of rain on the way back (then again it could have been from the windscreen wiper spray from the car in front - I couldn't tell!

    I sat in the car park and tweeted at CLP about the fact that the snow was on strict instructions not to show up till later. And OH MY GOODNESS my tweet was read out - I did a little dance in the car park at work - thankfully I think my colleague just thought I was cold lol. (Why do I get to cringing about being mentioned?!?!) Another one to record before Friday (so that I don't loose my appearance on air from the studio!!!!! woot woot!!! Yes I am still excited about that!

    This is now an essay and I am going to go now :)

    Keith - How is your grandson doing? All well I hope!

    Deevs - how was your day after yesterday?

  • Comment number 31.

    I'm not sure you can buy balaclavas. I know that when the IRA were at their worst you couldn't buy one for love nor money incase it got into the wrong hands. I've never had a scarf (well not since i was a nippa and me nan knitted me one in claret an blue) and i was on the terraces :-D I just make sure i buy coats/jackets with a collar and wear a hat the insulated ones :-D

    Hi Hannah

    I was awake most of th night coughing so a bit zombiefied today to be honest. I left work at 3ish and was under the duvet on the sofa by 3.20 - hence my disappearance from bloggery mid afternoon.

    I had about an hours sleep, and am hopeful to get some shut-eye tonight.

    And i love the image of you odancing around the car park!

    Sezza - no child minding tomorrow. Just have to see one SVQ in Dunfermline and if there's snow I'll be getting the bus.

    Steve: many years ago when my oldest son was little I knitted him a balaclava. It was one of the first things I ever knitted - followed the pattern stitch by stitch and was amazed when all the holes were in the right place. Same with socks for his wellies - 4 needles, follow the pattern and out comes a sock!!!!!

    I know - I need to get a life.

    No snow here either...

    Have finally caught up, but the footie is on!

    Good new though, he considers himself a better driver than me, so he will risk taking the Merc to Wales, and I can keep the Audi! He may well regret that!!

    MTF and Billie, you were asking about the weather in South Wales...my Mum and my sister live up very narrow and steep lanes, but they go up and down then in weather most people would not get out of bed for!

    However, I lived near Cowbridge, in a place called Llanblethian and in a place called Creigiau, not so far from Porthcawl for a while, and never had any issues...ok a bit of ice scraping, but no snow!

    Personally, I don't like Porthcawl, and there are plenty of other nicer places!

    Thanks JG, I dont really know Porthcawl but we are on the opposite coast.

    Its been the most spectacular day here today and the sun has shined and its not been that cold. I arrived back home to see the moon, lighting up the whole bay. Its almost like a 'welcome home scene'

    I have been listening to Sally Traffic talking about the snow in the Highlands all afternoon and hope everyone up there is safe and sound. We were 'that' close to moving to Braemar back in 1992.

    Hello.
    Well I don't know why I got modded, it was an amusing video regarding the type of scarf I have in my drawer, maybe it was advertising the said scarf. It explained (set to music) how to fasten the scarf, this went on for 10 minutes. Perhaps the modders got fed up.

    My brother and all the boys used to have a balaclava, my brother's being knitted by my mother.

    I personally wish that those fur hoods would become fashionable again, I looked quite cool in those.

    Like I say, we nearly moved there.

    Mr Mobs had the chance of relocation. We went up to have a look. Have a quick gander at the Invercauld Arms, Braemar.

    One of the reasons, why I gave my son his name.

    Deevs and Seza I am so glad that I have you two to understand the intricate workings of the sleep deprived CLP brain lol.

    However now it's 1am I got side tracked by finishing my story for NaNoWriMo and am somehow not sleepy because of my two hour nap this afternoon.

    Tomorrow and Friday are days off which is fab (4 day weekend!) and i am going to catch up with a friend tomorrow and spend time with my mum on friday - good times!

    Morning friends

    Feeling a bit betterererer today, which is weird, considering Nic and I stayed up til 2am watching the Ashes!

    It would appear that going to bed uber late means I sleep through to the alarm, instead of going to bed at normal bed time and waking up in the early hours coughing.

    I've even packed my yoga stuff for tonight. How's that for optimism!?!

    No snow here (yet) but it is 0 degrees and the car needed a lot of scraping this morning. Apparently the snow may reach The Midlands this afternoon though ..... ugh!

    Right, let's find something to do .....

    Snow Alert
    It's to late for asking who has snow. You should be asking who hasn't got it!
    I am watching it fall in Central Devon now at 0920 in Holsworthy.

    Good Morning Everyone.

    Avery cold day but no snow here in the North West, I believe it's down th East side.

    I'm off out now in case it comes over this way later and also while my leg is holding up. Still getting awful pain on and off from my pulled muscle caused by lifting my scooter backwards when it became stuck on a kerb.

    Glad to hear a good time was had at the R2 quiz, is Rips still out?

    Morning all

    No snow darn sarf, not even frosty. Blue sky and sunshine, albeit a bit chilly! Most likely put the mockers on it now!

    Keith, we have friends in Holsworthy. Useless bit of information but thought I'd mention it.

    Stay safe everyone.

    Morning peeps, no snow here in Edinburgh, the 大象传媒 keeps changing it's mind about wether we are going to get any. According to the current forecast we should be experiencing sleet showers just now, but it's sunny! So we'll see.

    Stay safe anyone who is out driving in the white stuff.

    Morning all,

    Quite a frost down here in Somerset last night! No snow though where I am and sat/sitting in my office in Exeter I am looking out of beautiful sunshine. I did have to venture out earlier and jackets are required.

    Boiler problems鈥. Mine works fine unless I have the heating and hot water on at the same time! If I do that and have a shower it turn鈥檚 my boiler off. I do only have to hit the reset button which normally would be no problem you would say鈥..well my boiler is in the loft! My OH will not go up there (spiders and cobwebs) so my first task some days is to 鈥渟ort the boiler out鈥. I am sure it can be fixed, I am just too tight. LOL

    Grandson update鈥.well he is just perfect! LOL I know I am biased but what can I say. My daughter has done a very good job cooking him for nine months. :-))))) xxx

    Dentist this afternoon, then stop off for a cuddle with George on my way home. Don鈥檛 tell Grandma. He he he

    Keep smiling

    Grumps Keith
