    I've just heard from a friend in the north of England.

    He says it has been snowing heavily for three days now and his wife has done nothing but stare through the window. If it doesn't stop soon, he says, he'll probably have to let her in. :)

            She'll be OK outside then, until Hubby is ready to let her in again. They breed 'em tough up North.
            No coats in the Bigg Market at the weekend - whatever the weather.:heehee:

              We often rave about the quality of the nighlife and talent in Newcastle at the weekend.
              They've now done a comparison with the Swedish talent to prove the Geordie claims. :dbgrtmb:
              Here's the results:- :mute:
              Sweden VS England
