mrbojangles Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 First proper frost of the year in Bristol this morning. Very cold outside. Bl**dy cold in London too! ! Same in Manchester. It's the first time Mrs BoJ has seen frost, her eyes lit up, she loved it and she can't wait to see the snow now. But it's alright for her, she was looking at me, scraping the ice off the car window and smiling, whilst she was in the house with the Central Heating turned up full bloody blast Oh well, back to LOS next month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact that is a pile of <deleted> that i am fighting with the garage to take back. I think a tuk tuk would be more reliable and it wouldnt be any colder because the heater doesnt work in the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boon Mee Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Turps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleyboy Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Turps? White spirit. Or pure alcohol, used for cleaning paint brushes and the like. Sometimes purple in colour to reminds us not to drink it. I do believe it makes you go blind but that could be an old wives tale, a bit like something else that makes you go blind. Anyway we had our first snow of the year last night. For once the weathermen were correct, they said snow by Friday. Heres what it looks like, i bet all you lot in Thailnd are really jealous. A house swap can be arranged, i have a 3 bed house on the outskirts of Bristol. Anyone wishing to do a house swap, i am looking for ANYTHING IN A HOT COUNTRY I will leave the wife for your cleaning needs, but beware all she will do now is moan about how cold she is even though the heating is turned up to 30c, but dont worry the moaning will only last until next July.

RDN Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 ...View out of my back door at 830am <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hard luck, Daleyboy! It's when it melts and re-freezes on your windscreen that it's a real bugger to get off! Haven't seen anything like that for few years. Mind you, you haven't seen the rain we've just had in Phuket!

Pudgimelon Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Mind you, you haven't seen the rain we've just had in Phuket! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I just got back from Phuket. The drive to the airport was complicated by a frigg'n MONSOON. The streets in Patong were flooded and the road construction around Tesco didn't help any. The road up and down the mountain was essentially a river, with falling rocks as a bonus. Fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool Water Palace Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Just realised no-one here seems to have mentioned the big fire. This seems the right thread to have an intellectual discussion about it. or would it be off-topic? Me? I slept right through the bang (too much wine the night before), and I'm only 30km away. Any thai visa members in Herts? Just looking outside so wait a mo. It's not raining, so no particles from the fire falling on Belsize Park tonight, and the Council haven't been round to sweep the leaves up yet.
