A woman visiting a maternity ward asks one of the babies, “And how old are you?” The baby says, “I’m two days old.” The woman says, “You can already talk?” The baby says, “Well, I wasn’t born yesterday.”

<p style=”text-align: center;”>@desperate-dan I don’t know why the US doesn’t use Celsius like most everyone, but no, I wasn’t referring to below freezing. It has been below zero degrees Fahrenheit here. Imagine how happy the pet dogs have been having to go outside in that to do their business!</p>

Hi @catsnbirds, pretty confused when you guys talk about sub-zero temperatures. I thought the US used Fahrenheit.  But you don’t say sub-32 temperatures. I suppose you use it loosely to mean below freezing. Or are you just translating for us Brits?

If you claim it is minus 40 then I won’t be confused as that is where the the two scales are…[Read more]

What? Nigella on the Bake Off?

Please no.

Must say I enjoyed the weather forecast tonight.Still wet and windy but sexy Elizabeth Rizzini delivered it in style and in a split skirt which almost showed her knickers.This is how Nigella Lawson would do  the weather.

The heat certainly got to Coco Gauff.

Hey @briann , yes, very strange storm. Michigan didn’t really get too much snow, maybe 4 to 6 inches (although it is snowing again this morning), but the extreme cold is not fun. Days and days of below zero temperatures! My sister in Maine got about 18 inches. States to the south that are not used to this are really suffering. Hard to keep the r…[Read more]

Wonder if Harry Hill will dust off his Nigella impersonation on Junior Bake Off?Probably not age appropriate.

Ashamed to say @briann that I have been a bit distracted from all that by the news that Nigella Lawson has been recruited onto the Bake Off team.  As if the show’s innuendo quotient wasn’t already off the scale. I am having a moment, not to say a soggy bottom.

Hi @karen68 I saw that on our news at lunch time and Toronto was mentioned so thought I’d better apologise for wittering on about a bit of rain.Has it hit Michigan @catsnbirds and do your squirrels have frozen nuts?

I’m surprised they played at all. A ferocious storm moved through half the US. We  caught it here with some record-setting snow, and we were just on the upper fringes of it.
But hey, it’s American football. More than just a pastime for them!

Yep,there snow game like a snow game although they’re becoming less frequent as more teams build new roof covered stadia.Good job Denver pipped New England for no.1 seed or the game would’ve been played at Foxborough which had a foot and a half of snow.

My god, did you watch this game? Played in a blizzard. Was white such a good colour for the Patriots to wear? Maybe it was, their defence was able to hide. Not that anyone could see very far anyway.
