With a shovel and a pick and a shriveled up d*ck, hi hoooooooooo hi ho hi ho hi hoooooo.

if done by trad water freezes on glass if done by pole water can freeze on glass and on pathways. Think they will understand about the conditions .

Think this will make me plan financially better next year....

Yeh I've seen snow due tomorrow. I gotta find 2 grand for the taxman in the next 3 weeks. I gotta pay a tad more than i anticipated,lol. Likewise,i'll plan better this year, but no doubt my tax bill will be small next year cos i'm getting hammered this time. So if Simon Cowell's reading this......ello maaaaaaaaate  ;)  ;D

Light snow in Stafford. Am going out at 10am and will do as much as i can.

Water isnt freezing on the ground at the moment, so thats a good thing.

Snow boots, 2 x socks, 2 x underwear, work trousers, 1 t-shirt, 1 polo shirt, 1 jumper, 1 warm fleecy jacket with hood, hat.

Think ill be good with that.

Problem is i dont have a decent pair of gloves since i threw my sealskinz :(
