From what I understand all of England and probably half of Europe too is now under either snow or water.
And here in South Australia it's bone dry and looking forward (?) to another week of extreme heat. :r
Bex certainly has a lot to answer for. *:|* :P

And yet she still won't let me have any new pics. :(

The thing about trees is this.
They can be very big and when they become stressed by wind (tick), heat (tick), or lack of water (also tick) they're liable to drop a few branches.

And the thing about power lines is this.
In most places here they're on poles above ground, not safely tucked away in trenches underground where they should be.

You see where I'm heading with this?
A few hours ago we lost all power through a falling branch taking out the cables.
It's only just come back on, which I might add is better than some of those suburbs which lost power last Tuesday due to the gale force winds.
Some had no electricity for three days. :r



It's been lovely here, fishy. :W :mrgreen:

Most of the South and West of England is now underwater, glub glub, but fortunately I don't live there and they all voted for this Government so it serves them right :)P could it be worse? well apparently in Northern Sweden they recorded overnight temperatures of -40 Centigrade yesterday. Madness abounds. Nevermind here is a nice video of YOHIO advertisng the Suzuki SX4 S-CROSS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naohLs50q0A

No extreme heat here, of course, but it's very dry because of lack of precipitation (snow), which, with help from open fire and wind, causes great forrest fires.
The day after I wrote about last fire, a new one arose on a different place.
It's been ridiculous lately, 4 big forrest fires within a week, and a total ban of all open fire has been appointed, with a fine of 1500£ for any offenses.





Is this all your doing too, Bex? :? :T

Yohio is doing car commercials now?


Oh, what the heck.
Even Bob Dylan is doing it now a days. :wink:

As far as commercials go, it's pretty good.
It also gave him the chance to show off his brilliant guitar playing. Image

And as for minus 40C. :shock:
No thanks.
Plus 40C is crap but at least you can survive in it for more than a few minutes.
(All the fault of bloody conservative governments too if you ask me. :roll: :T :lol: )

Some lowlife was arrested here on Friday for starting 7 fires in parks close to houses.
Some real idiots around, that's for sure.
Hope he gets life. :x


Most people think Bex is patting the baby bear in this scene, but in reality she's sticking pins into her "Fish" voodoo doll. :evil: :T

Yeah. That'll do. :P :lol:

Queensland is a beautiful place for anyone contemplating a visit, especially if you're as far away from Brisbane as you can get. :P :lol:

Never been. That bad?

-40? :shock:

Time for the "Fish feels a prick" joke. You really let that one go, fishy... :mrgreen: :wink:

My purpose in life is to provide you with straight lines.
A task I fulfill admirably. :roll: :lol:



Earth to Bex.
Earth to Bex.
Come in Bex.
Do you read me?

Time to watch all the "good" bits of DRS again I think. :roll:

Not very likely, I don't think, given it was late 90s. *:|*

Ian is probably right.
I know the dvd is available on cdon.com, but they don't ship outside of Norway/Sweden.
Sorry. :(

I'm sure if you had a few to spare we could find a way to smuggle them out for a modest profit. :wink:

I for one would really love to have the "Bex" Eva & Adam dvd's if it's at all possible to find a way.
We'd need to arrange money transfers and stuff, but I'm very keen. *:)*

If we're going to be serious about it, it's probably best to arrange details by PM with those who express an interest. :Y



I thought Bex would do the right thing for Lex's birthday, but you know how she gets when the pressure's on. :roll: :P
