School/college was closed today so me and my sister decided to make a massive snowman :D
-
Hopefully by 16:00 hrs the snow will fall here. I don't know if it'll be enough to make a snowman. Maybe one of three apples tall.
-
my wee sister, nine years old, threw a snowball at school today and got two pages of lines for it.
this modern world of political correctness and health and safety gone mad won't even let little kids throw snowballs! a snowman would probably be classed as a dangerous structure and require scaffolding and properly trained demolition teams!
F******g beurocratic arsewipes
-
I'll trade your snow for the -17C temps we have here!!
-
hahaha blue, thats just bloody stupid. I remember in year 8 or something, someone threw a snowball at the headteacher and knocked off her wig :lol: :D
I'm kinda scared this snowman's gonna collapse and crush my dog if he decides to piss up it :lol: Its massive, doesnt look as big in the pic. Had to use a piece of wood as a ramp to get the middle ball up because it was so heavy :P
-
Grrrrr I'm in work and can't get building a snowman :(
Though it was funny watching the staff at the ice rink down below totally fail to sweep away the 1.5 cm of snow (fecking weaklings)
Less funny was the cancelled trains because 1cm of snow made it very dangerous (according to the DLR staff mamber) (shite country)
-
I had to park my motor about a mile or so from work (it's a 17 year old, automatic, rear wheel drive beemer, so it's fairly lethal in the snow) and walk the rest of the way (past the cars in the ditches as I work in the deepest darkest countryside). Still got a rollocking for being late though :evil:.
-
haha my dad didnt even make it to work, got half way and the road was blocked by a car which managed to slide right into the middle blocking access both ways. Decided he might as well work at home. He's got a RWD auto car as well which doesnt seem to be good for snow-driving :lol:
-
Hmmm... 13 degrees and blue skies here today 8)
-
none here... it's tried its best a couple of times, and it's cold (not ben's new york cold, lol), but only a few tiny flurries, and they didn't lie.
-
PFEH!
i laugh at the English! freaking out coz they get an inch and a half of snow!
if we get anything less than four inches here we're disappointed, meanwhile the south of England grinds to a halt?
incidentally, no snow here. dry and sunny, so i went out and washed the motor.
-
The snow here in Nottingham is pathetic - it's snowed all day and it hasn't really settled at all :cry:

In east london it was half an inch, and everything still died <sogh>

Mostly all gone here; shame, as I'd got my camera kit together to take a few choccy-boxy shots of Ye Oldey Cotswoldeys.
That "lines for snowballs" is a typically pathetic symptom of this p-c, nanny-state that bleats about empowerment yet dehumanizes its people more each day. Probably blue's sister was also adding to the greenhouse effct by getting so excited that she was breathing out more than her quota of carbon dioxide.
And what is happening with Fear-of-Terrorist mentality infecting weather forecasters of late??! They crank up people's fear levels by overblowing what the weather will be in a week's time, so everyone's expecting a rain of frogs and biblical apocalypse...then they actually have the neck to advise you on your movements: "oooooh, make sure you wrap up warm...", etc;...then the weather turns out normal, whilst people have taken their kids off school, themselves off work and have stockpiled red cross parcels to weather out the conflagration...Sheesh!!
No wonder folks are generally freakingly without hope: kids who are enslaved by the latest "i-sm", unable to have an opinion unless the government has allowed it, going to universities to put themselves in debt for something that should be and used to be free, then dudes in their early 20s facing life with a millstone of debt around their necks in a society that is intent on destroying Family and pride in one's own gender, nation and contribution...aaaaargghhh!! :shock:
...er....I said that aloud, didn't I...?
Um...er, nope, snow all gone here. :roll:

On the subject of PC, I just saw on Yahoo news, one school isnt allowing children to make Mothers day cards at school because it could upset children without parents or a mum :roll:
Its still snowing here, not much though but its been going all day :D
-

It'd suck to have no parents, but I doubt mothers day is the only time parents are around/highly visible... every day parents are picking kids up from school, etc.
Seems a bit retarded- not making mothers day cards is hardly going to make it all better if you have no mum...
:(

Yeah, exactly. Never seemed to bother anyone when I was at school either :?
-
Just make a counter claim that it offends kids who do have mothers, or transvestite fathers
-
School Wasn't closed, but about 3 people turned up.
Most of us went off to the park for a snowball fight.
Pah! Lines!
When we threw snowballs on the all weather pitch, we were simply locked in until we all got cold, wet and miserable
-
Haha best snow day ever, chucking snowballs at anything that moved, particularly cars, people got so pissed off but that will teach them for having their windows open!
-
our "snow" came down as rain... and lots of it! i had 3 exams today, so even if there was snow, the day would still be awful!!! i think i may have got a D in RE....
anyway, it was very disappointing.

-
:lol: I almost got into a fight with a few people because they tried to start a snowball fight with me. One thing you should never do is try to start something with me if I don't know you, because I'll lash out :lol:

I think that people having life is offensive to those who are dead and so we should all die..........
It is pathetic that a little snow brings everything to a halt.I had a hairy drive across country this morning but it was all gone tonight. Like Ben, my son thinks it is pathetic-he lives in Columbus Ohio and I gather it was minus 15 degrees there a few days ago. He thinks our weather is balmy in comparison.

We only get snow like once a year though or even less sometimes, so i think they should let us enjoy it whilst it's there, you could see everyone enjoyed it in our town.
-
I quite agree Joe-like everything in life, grab opportunities when you can.
-
School was closed to my dismay. Meant band organisation went to shite and didn't get any time to jam.
Anyway, here in Palmers Green opened the door to about 4-5 inches. :o

That was the idea Johnny :lol: Haven't seen you around of late-hope you are Ok.

......................
I thought it was just the chavs that did that kinda stuff.
Snowball fights yeah but that is just dumb and annoying.
I never understood why some people find it fun to purposely annoy others.
Sorry, rant over.

Ok, I live in Oz, and I have seen snow ONCE in my life, and it was about 8 hours drive from where I live.
Pity me! :(

Yeah it was mostly.
Didn't get another snow day today, my mothers school got cancelled today but they announced that it was cancelled yesterday, i don't see how you can do that!
-
Our school also decided yesterday that it should be closed today, I bet the teachers just wanted an extra 2 days of their half term :lol:
I just thought, shouldnt we be calling them snowpeople as opposed to snowmen, I mean it could be offensive to females of the snow race :idea:
-

also what about the snow animals, their rights are being violated while being held in totally inappropiate conditions. They are being held in peoples gardens & public spaces while people watch their slow agonising deaths
What about the snow transexuals, you are stigmatising them

Good job it wasn't my car, otherwise there would have been some kids waking up in my boot :twisted:

My son doesn't see his mum and mothers day is an exceptionally painful time for him (the poor wee mite :( ), so I can see the reasoning for it. I'd never advocate the banning of mothers day, we just get him making stuff for his grannies instead! :)
-
That's the most piss weak snowman I've ever seen. Honestly, why do you people make such a fuss about it when you get like one and a half flakes of snow?
-
Because it doesnt really snow that much here.. whats wrong with my snowman :cry:
Sorry if I offended, Fubar, I just thought it was a really stupid idea..

Ah, the world authority on the design, construction and engineering of Snow-Related Sculpture I presume.
We've been expecting you.
