The Iceman Cometh.

Any excuse to use the title of the famous play by F.Scott Fitzgerald. I have never seen the play, but have always liked the title. I had a good joke based on the title on a certain bulletin board once, but got told to remove it for legal reasons.

Such is life.

Anyway. I have had a happy half hour this morning clearing snow away from the path outside my mothers bungalow in king Street. There is nothing like a bit of snow and ice clearence to get the circulation going and to boost ones energy levels. Its also one way of disposing of a packet of Lo-Salt that was once bought by accident.

All in all a good job, well done.

Like many of us I expect you were buoyed up by Geoff Hoon’s, exhortation to us all ....... “DON’T WHINGE !!”

What a Wally !! How to win friends and influence people !! Apparently, his nickname at Westminster is “Buff” (Buff Hoon).

As Transport Secretary he suggested that drivers should go out and buy snow chains, instead of complaining about the authorities who have not stockpiled enough gritting salt to treat our roads.

With politicians like him in charge, is it any wonder the UK is in the mess it is !!
