Two flash hailstorms in quick succession just before it got dark. Now the surface water has started to freeze.

Altogether now...

It's just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane,
Let's do the Time Warp again!

If a Klingon appeared outside fish-net tights, I'd blame the mushy peas.

Well, if it wasn't for the ice cold wind blowing, and the occasional rain shower, it would have been a rather nice day today, cos being in the sun was nice and warm... :)

It is definitely the mushrooms. They are popping up in the garden now.

Another killer comment

today they had to write in my instruction for returning to work that I was Not to enter any kitchen at work that allowed mushrooms and that repeated exposure to mushrooms or mushroom spores can lead to sudden irreversable death.

Reading that it seems most people have non-fatal reversable symptoms before they develop death symptoms later.

That means we can all keep taking the mushrooms till we have itchy feet.

LOL, might be a logical move, as there is a big potential UK audience for football in the league closed season, perhaps it would serve the Scottish leagues well.

Something drastic needs to be done - the Scottish game is a disaster from top to bottom atm. Half a dozen teams are teetering on the edge of administration - Hearts will almost certainly be the next team to go under.
