I think putting the word balmy in front of any minus single digit figures has run it's course. Unlike many horses in the past week or so.

Let us have our fun! I imagine you are reading this going :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: because you are in North Dakota in minus 8 billion or whatever it is there, but if you were here in Ireland you'd understand
It's possibly a once in a lifetime experience for many here!

I don't have an atomic clock sadly, just a very cheap maplin weather station jobbie.
You even have to set the time on it yourself :pac:

It's made it to -6.8 on it now.
The ice cube trays on the balcony are coming along nicely.

Alright dl, mad stuff entirely, have beer in car much colder than fridge:eek:
the yoke i have is a radio clock ( i think an atomic clock might cost about 5 million sterling) anyhow its very funny its like a grey african parrot every ten minutes it gets the signal for exact accuracy on the time and it squaks, it also has a decent weather gauge on it, have been using it last few nights and been decent... tonight error lll etc.. keep warm and enjoy them ice cubes, going to bed soon up at 5am today slightly tired now night night;) 2.49.11am

The roads weren't too bad up until today. You could really notice how bad they were. Don't think they were gritted very well. Estates are lethal.

I reckon we will.

Yeah hopefully we do. Would love to see the place with loads of snow. Was down at the bridge of the boyne earlier and just at the side of the bank, part of the river was frozen!

It will snow on Sunday, thats a sure bet by the looks of it.

Having no school has me screwed. I have Leaving Cert mocks at the start of February.:eek:

hopefully see snow but dont think so, went over to navan earlier and not too bad but know the bad spots but people driven so close when you slow down when bad spots are around seen a car in ditch then few cars pulled in also dont think they going to keep grittin the road though
