Well it does seem, as I look out of my window at the sea of grey and rain drops that winter has arrived, or at least returned from its week off. Which means that everyone has a common talking point and a common reason to be miserable. It also means that we are now on a collision course with 6 months of bad weather, which most people believe to be a bad thing. However bad wether creates a good feeling, kind of siege mentality, like in the war, except its not nazi bombs and mustard gas were all fighting, it's rain, snow and a lack of common sense. By the end of the week we will be seeing pensioners huddled together underneath bus shelters complaining about the rain, like a bunch of damp refugees. And went the snow comes we will all be asked to look after our elderly neighbours, and sooner or later there will be a news story stating some halfwit has died trying to climb Ben Nevis wearing just a pair of crocs and a bobble hat. And together as one we will all shout 'moron'. So lets all cut the bad weather some slack and embrace the rain and the way it unites us.
Also In my humble opinion I've just witnessed the most disturbing news story of the year, no, not one about a much loved celebrity passing away, or hundreds of innocent nun's children's bunny rabbits being killed, but a story that a shooting star that flew over parts of England last night may have just been an ordinary piece of space crap. Ok I appreciate the BBC has to report the facts but why not let the good people of Slough believe they have seen something magical and amazing, Not just some rusty old bolts from a space station, It does seem rather unfair that we aren't allowed to enjoy these 'special' moments without someone with thick glasses and a West Country accent telling us were all idiots and we were in fact wrong.
I've also just been reading the local paper, and there are about 50 adverts for lost cats, Now I've never really understood cats, or understood why people want them, But for so many to go missing is just odd, and its not just this week, it's every week, these horrible flea ridden dog wannabe's are going missing in their hundreds, now I can't decide wether this is down to their odd owners carelessness or more likely it may be down to the cats who having being spoiled for so long now intend on taking over the world, it's the perfect plan if you think about it, after all. Who expects a cat?
