If you have MSPaint, open your photo in Paint and draw a Santa Hat on (like i did) or, for something slightly more professional ( :P ), find someone who can photoshop

Hey Nicky you're so fine, you're so fine you blow my mind hey Nicky!

I'll pay you ten space credits for a tiny Christmas hat on my head as I take nightwatch on the bridge.

The entirety of the United Kingdom seems to have ground to a halt, and I'm off school for a couple of days! Breath of snow and the country seems to panic.

Well up here we have more than a breath of snow, we've had about a foot of it so far and it shows no sign of stopping anytime soon.

We've had, on reflection, about...4 inches I'd suggest. And it's continuing to come down. Hard.

Didn't that happen last year to you guys across the Ocean? We haven't gotten any snow so far, and honestly I don't want any this early. I would like it to wait til after my finals.

4" is enough to make things "grind to a halt" in Portsmouth?

Hmmm... maybe the oxen are too cold to pull the snowplows, or the government is trying to be considerate of the little rice-burner chav-mobiles.

It's not Portsmouth, it's the entire bloody country at the moment. To be fair, the further north you go the heavier it is. Yorkshire and Lancashire have had a foot or two worth of snow by now. But as a country we have little encounter with snow so no-one knows how the heck to deal with it.

Supposedly we get more of it but we don't know either what to do with all the white stuff. Last friday we received our first batch of about 4 cm, which is still lying around as it has been freezing on and off. As we speak everything gets a second white coat.

We have a Star Trek convention in town this weekend. I posted the schedule. I wonder if I should go.....lunch with the Klingons sounds like a blast.

The network at work is buggy. Taking advantage of a rare bit of up time today before it inevitably craps out again.
