Days Like These

Where everything should be done in pencil so I can rub it out tomorrow....

Woke up this morning and it was snowing. I am unimpressed. It's at least a whole month too early for snow - the clocks haven't even gone back yet. It has continued with occasional flurries of white stuff drizzle. Very unpleasant. Correspondingly, the temperature has fallen dramatically and we expect the first sub-zero night tonight.

Today's Blip is the inscription on a tankard given to me by rxs. It commemorates a particularly messy after-work "couple of pints" that ended with him using this particular phrase to explain to his wife what happened. As I understand it, he now uses it as a standard explanation for when anything goes wrong.

And now I think about it, a lot of other people did the same thing. I wonder if they still do.
