Anyone from the UK?

Another 4km run, nice to get back out there, even if it is warm

I heard on the wireless, home service, that the Shipping forecast will be 50 years old this year.

Apparently my Dad used to listen to it. I sail too and although there's a load of other sources for weather, I love the format of the SF. There's a strict format to it = no more than 350 words.

 

[stickygirl]

I'm sweating into my eyes again in the Midlands

... hence your name

 

[Saltfountain]

... hence your name

Yup. That's exactly the reason.

Some other cunt had already taken Nostradamus...

Have you seen/heard the SF read by the West Indies cricketer Carlos Braithwaite, it's like poetry

I have no idea why I listen to it. But I do

Well it’s still hot. Damm hot here in the smoke.

cool breeze by the river...

Down by the lazy river

Are you two spies?

Am I about to suffer extraordinary rendition?

of course not

but then again, we would say that.

Back to work, doing a night shift again. At least it's a bit cooler in Wales tonight

I finished at half 12, left the windows open enjoying the cool breeze one my camper

 

[Ironfan]

Morning all, halfway through the work week (at 12 noon for @Hodes101 ) Hope everyone has a good day.

 

[Hodes101]

Good morning.

Much cooler today. Must be appreciated by the bin men who are due this morning.

 

[jonnoback]

Weather report: it’s 19 and drizzling with a high of 24 expected today. Manageable.

 

[Foxed]

Drizzle in the south. But cozy in the camper

 

[LittleGreene]

Drizzle in the East as well - a welcome respite.

Is that a euphemism?

 

[jonnoback]

Is that a euphemism?

It’s a UK thread so

 

[LittleGreene]

Is that a euphemism?

Surely we’d say ‘moist’ or ‘damp and accommodating’ to make it obvious

 

[Saltfountain]

Where's the fun in that?

Also, surely they're just descriptions, as opposed to euphemisms?

No jumper needed
