! This post hasn't been updated in over a year. A lot can change in a year including my opinion and the amount of naughty words I use. There's a good chance that there's something in what's written below that someone will find objectionable. That's fine, if I tried to please everybody all of the time then I'd be a Lib Dem (remember them?) and I'm certainly not one of those. The point is, I'm not the kind of person to try and alter history in case I said something in the past that someone can use against me in the future but just remember that the person I was then isn't the person I am now nor the person I'll be in a year's time.
The Met Office has issued a severe weather warning for all of England, Wales, Northern Ireland and for Southern Scotland.

You can check the forecast for your local area on the Met Office website or use the Met Office Firefox extension (works with Flock) to get the forecast in your sidebar.
