    .... according to the BBC news this morning we have had a much wider variety of moths arriving here because of the balmy weather ... i feel in my bones that the moths and us are in for a big disappointment with the weather .... and another kind of perfect storm seems to be whipping itself up what with the Gov of the Bank of England's doomsday comments and Moody's downgrading the UK banks .... i have a bad feeling that the news is going into one of those gripping phases .... only us oldies remember when there was nowt much ... it will be a shock ...

        12.5 C at noon just now doesn't seem quite as much of a shock as I'd been expecting, probably because of extra clothing, and I'd braced myself for it.

        TV License renewal notice just arrived - at least that hasn't gone up this year!

          Never mind S_A, When you are 75 you won't have to pay the TV licence.....unless they change the rules in the next 20 years or so.

            Remembered too late as I ventured out last night that I must dig out my reflective armbands.....Southampton's lighting system seems to be affected by the general cutbacks in services. A man was sweeping leaves from an island in the centre of the Avenue with cars whistling past him at frightening speeds. He seemed barely visible to me.

                    Lady Gould's Sunday paper claims we are entering a mini ice age like 300(?) years ago!

                        Totally filthy up here in Ultima Thule. Blowing hard, fine, drenching rain in it. Walk 100 metres and you're soaked.

                          No evidence of looming ice age here! Today temps in the 80s, tomorrow the same. It's a three-day weekend so everyone's enjoying this reprise of summer! Too bad I have to work, but that's life!

                            Not very cold here but a very nasty gale force wind blowing which finds cracks in the windows and doors.

                              Just reading about the recent sun's activity. We just have to wait and see!

                                Some religions believe the sun to be God. We live in symbiotic relationship. I have a soft spot for the sun; it has hot spots for me.
