Mid 20's around here today, a little cloudy now but it's been brilliant sunshine and blue skies all day. Supposed to stay the same for the rest of the week, which is good because I hate playing in the rain :D

I distinctly remember asking someone what the weather forecast was when I was in Calgary.

"Cold..." the guy said, "Just cold, that's all you need to know in this place!"

Omg, it has been hot for some days already and I'm sweating all the time. :s I have to study for my exams, but it's overwhelmingly tough as the room is at least as hot as it's in the outside and I'm having a headache. I wish it was raining, then I'd go out to try to cool down. :)

The temperature has been nearly +30, but for me already 20+ is too hot, so winter is my favourite season for a good reason. :)

Instead of spending your Fridays bashing a little white ball all over the gaff you'd be much better served posting jokes on the allotted day and time matey ;)

Daniel and I were in a store called Nauticalia and saw these aaaages ago. They made us think of you :)

Holy high pressure zone Bat Carrie!
I must confess that when I first clapped my "minces" on that little beauty a small bead of sweat formed on my upper lip before plopping gently on to my Sou'wester.

Now I realise I'm asking a lot here but I wonder if you'd mind awfully typing a description of the object in question while the shower runs in the background and a powerful fan blasts full pelt while Daniel bangs furiously on an empty biscuit tin and simultaneously flicks the lights on and off.

Please dispel at once any lingering fears you may harbour that I will in any shape or form derive some type of erroneous or perverse pleasure from your act. In fact I have already taken the precaution of donning boxing gloves and bonding my trousers to my waist with industrial strength Araldite.
The wearing of a Sian Lloyd TV weathergirl mask during your task is not compulsory but preferable :mad:

PS Am I alone in becoming extremely aroused by conjuring up visions of 1970s TV star of "Seahunt" Lloyd Bridges swimming around underwater whilst blowing bubbles from his aqualung?

oily oaf
1st June 2007, 07:08
Come on Carrie! Get a bleedin' move on love, I can't keep these boxing gloves on for ever ya know :mad:
Last night I gave Mrs Oaf a playful chuck underneath the chin and knocked the poor cow spark out :(
So it's not all bad :)

Btw did anyone else catch Seahunt last night on UKTV Gold?
There was this bit where Lloyd Bridges' diving partner had his mask torn off by a giant squid so Lloydie had to use his own supply of oxygen to keep his mate alive with a technique known as "buddy breathing"
Jesus H Christ you shoulda seen the bubbles those 2 babies blew.
I must admit I lost all control and disgraced myself in front of the wife's mother.
It seemed like the most natural thing in the world

Sorry Oily, but I haven't much time. I am off to a festival of wood! Just to keep you happy I remember this little treasure. Think of the joy it could bring to your life.

:rotflmao: Where do you GET this stuff from love.
Incidently you do realise that you're costing me a small fortune young lady :mad:
I've just sported out 250 sovs on a strapless shipping forecast incontinence evening gown.
I was thinking of showing it off at The Festival Of Wood :)

How'd it go btw? You must be absolutely cream crackered you poor love. It can't be easy sitting in the front row with your high magnification opera glasses clocking all those different types and sizes of wood :( .

Still it's better than looking at Daniel with his strides down I spose :s mokin:

Nice weather here, feels like summer is coming. Might drag myself down to the beach for a walk tonight.

Oily, the Festival of wood was very interesting. I saw a man with a chainsaw carve a squirrel out of a log in less than 15 mins. Not entirely sure why.

May I suggest this piece of apparel, you are the only person in the entire world who I would imagine buying such a thing...... http://www.nauticalia.com/enlargement.php?dpi=6220

Pah! I sneer at chainsaws. I carved a squirrel out of a log in 13mins 27.9secs using nought but my trusty chopper. :mad:

I don't wish to appear disparaging or judgemental but has the gentleman in the picture got his head on upside down? :( Mmmmmmmmm Souwesters :s ailor:

I'm sure he could have lured the squirrel out of that log with peanuts in 15 seconds.

Well, we had a record rainfall last night... 72mm fell during a 12-hour period.

My soirée on the links was cut short to a mere 6 holes :mad: .

On another nearby course two people were taken to hospital after being fried by lightening... :mark:



Still raining... :mark:

Yesterday started out nice and balmy, but then the wind changed from the south (Sahara) and we got blasted with 43 degrees for the rest of the day!
Thankfully the breeze is off the Med today.

Heard on the radio on the way to work that you guys got dumped on and that it's heading our way. Just wondering if I needed to get my shovel ready.

We had a beautiful autumn day yesterday +20C & sunny, but the forecast for tomorrow is high of +5.

We had a dusting of snow a couple of nights ago... certainly nothing requiring the mobilisation of the shovel :mark:

We got some snow tonight ourselves, but it still melted immediately. They are calling for -10 tonight, but it doesn't look like Winter is near.
