I'll have the salt and olive oil scrub, followed by the sea weed wrap and then I want to be gently steamed for a half hour and then....

I'll have an all meat pizza, scotch on the rocks, and toss me the bubble bath before you hit the jets.

Haven't seen you in a while. You live in Ireland? Did you get that weird windy winter weather that UK did? Brief video clips I saw on TV newscasts looked downright frightening.

Haven't seen you, either! :)

Hmmm... when was this? We had some bad storms over the course of January.

I do remember seeing a news report of a tornado in London, or some English city.

Maybe... but seperate genuine posters from trolls?

Most definitely. Genuine posters get angel crested headstones, trolls get gargoyles.

Maybe a month ago or a little more. I think I heard London & Brighton. Often I am cooking during the 6 pm news and missed bits.

This looked brutal and I have the impression it was going on more than just one day. The ground was icy and winds appeared to be beyond gale force. Men and women were holding onto things for dear life and every one of them had their feet blown out from under them. I understand there was a fair amount of property damage.

It was the ice and wind that got to me. People out in it were helpless.

At least you were subject to it...
