If it's anything like my council, the schools decide about closure.

Not sure about 'It is predicted that by the end of this year, female gamers will outnumber men for the first time.' I'm guess it includes a lot of Facebook and phone game players.

Can we move Christmas to January so we can have a white Christmas.

Good idea - but I figure we should do it by having January twice this year.

The BBC are wondering why so many schools are closed, too: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-21124238

Well it was moved to December. One more move could be done.

How two Jans?

Assuming that by "in", you mean "down" - The combination of metal shoes on snow on tarmac is somewhat akin to Babmi on the ice. You can fit snow studs, but then you can't go on clear (or shallow) patches with a road underneath.

Horses, even more rubbish than I thought.

Jesus, you can get School Closure Insurance

Quote:

When the school is closed because of floods, bad weather or heating failure/boiler breakdown, for an annual premium of just £30 we will make a claims payment of £100 per day* that could be used for:

Huh - that sounds like quite a good bet.

Quote:

There is no cover for the first day of each school closure
Closures of less than a whole day are not covered

WTF? FTFO.

Ooh! A question popped into my mind a few nights ago, and it's a good one. I've not come up with a decent answer yet. I don't want to Google it as that's no fun.

On a normal, healthy human body, are there three of anything?

I came up with one, but it's not very good:

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

Ears. It's a bit cheating, though.

Anyone think of any more?

Malc · **Posted:** Tue Jan 22, 2013 1:16

Just 3?

Cos I can think of fingers and toes.

maybe "knuckles on my left index finger"

That's a bit cheaty, because that's "things on a finger" rather than "things on a human body".

School Update.

Just dropped MrsKovs youngest off at school. The school has done a fantastic job of clearing the paths and gritting.

The council on the other hand out side the school have done bugger all. The paths are icy.

I feel quite sorry for Prince Harry. People complain at his lifestyle, yet when he comes back from Afghanistan, he appears to get pillioried for having done his job.

They are arguing about that on Radio Scotland's morning mongos phone in show. There was some MP wifey that needed to breathe a bit more.

Fuck knows. I don't think we should have a royal family at all, I think it makes us look like a bunch of utter retards. But I've got nothing against any of them personally. I saw the interview where he spoke about shooting at the enemy. He seemed to have precisely the same attitude to it as anyone else doing that job. :shrug:

Yeah, but Captain Planet is pretty cool. Captain Wales, a bit less so.
Still, could be worse, could be Captain Cornwall.

I never knew there was such a thing. They look more like wrestling masks.

They would make excellent crowns for a medium dog.

They would make excellent gloves for Abe (from Oddworld. I can't think of any three fingered film aliens right at this minute).
