Nice neighborhood, btw.

I think we're the last part of the country to get it, so more or less the whole country looks like this now. Won't be long before things grind to a halt.

They reckon that global warming is melting the glaciers in Greenland which releases huge quantities of fresh water into the north Atlantic and diluting the salt water. This causes the warm water in the North Atlantic Conveyor to sink before it reaches us, so ironically though the temperatures are going up worldwide, Northern Europe may end up cooler

Full on Hawk...I better check on the olds, they're in Dorset.

Like England needs to get any cooler? Stay warm mate!
