Snowing heavy in Sunderland again. We have had snow on the ground every day since the 14th Dec.

Coming home on the Tyne And Wear Metro this evening I seen an igloo in someone's back garden!

So am I, especially here. The local evening news showed nearly empty tubes running in the rush hour, they all stayed at home. You would have thought that London was covered by a foot of snow.

It's because Southerners are a bunch of jessies who cry as soon as 3 ********** fall.

Whats funny is that i keep speaking to customers down south on the phone describing how they must have "over a foot of snow" when the met office shows they've probably had about 5-10 centimetres at most.

Southern jessies just see more than an inch on the ground and it must be at least a foot ! :D
 
Royal Mail haven't delivered any post for 3 days now to our business - and we're in West London - the conditions aren't that bad!

Although our small road is quite icy, had a customer come to deliver some stock yesterday - he crashed into a car next to our unit , then got out of his car and left the keys inside :p

Spent 30 minutes trying to break into his car - ended up having to smash the window!
 
I'm starting to think it's all a big hoax with some good photoshopping, we still have only 2" of snow, with a light coating this evening. :(

MrLOL I agree (although disagree about the southern pansies, some of us aren't ;)), people seem to get the deepest drift and measure that as the snow depth!

Had our post every day this winter so far (other than bank hoildays and Sundays obviously!).
 
i also think theres a lot of rounding up going on to make things seem worse.

Who has actually got a tape measure out and accurately measured it ?
 
And that...

Problem is so many people couldn't tell you the difference between an inch and a foot, even older blokes strangely. Doesn't help when even the news are showing drifts and stating that is the snow depth...

Its quite funny actually. I was watching the BBC and suddenly a red flash came across the screen and the met office issued the highest possible weather warning we can have in the UK. Basically the snow the north had suffered from was going to happen in the south.

Suddenly there were weather report specials, they had weather experts on talking about whats going to happen, claims its the worst the "COUNTRY" has ever seen, and other over the top garbage. Whereas before when the north had really bad snow, they gave about a 60 second mention of it between the "main" news :D
