gonzo Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 No idea what the geese are up to today. Shit loads heading east this morning but really high up suggesting it’s not simply heading to feeding land. Then another lot flying low southbound which does. Too early for the first lot to be fucking off to the lochs yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, the legions of staff down at the airport have a less practical attitude and have shut the runway. Brexit will be a doddle by comparison to a bit of snow.

( The one making this decision based on health and safety) Probably, though it's possible teachers may be struggling to get in. Kept it open last year, and there were too few teachers so classes were disrupted, and he did nowt much anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MancWanderer Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Seriously struggled to get out of east Manc this morning at 7am via Oldham to M62. Struggled up over Rishworth Moor. Different world on the wrong side of the Pennines. Lovely sunny day spent in Middlesbrough (aye lovely and Middlesbrough in the same sentence). In Newcastle tonight and tomorrow. Fuck me it really does get colder up here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
