One for the skiers on the forum...

Apparently, one way to save yourself being buried in an avalanche is to make swimming movements.

As per this news article.

The one and only time the Inquisition was raised in England was actually in Leeds - to nab the Knights Templars loot.

Just like them Yorkshire folks ain't it?

At 1352, I listened to Scorpions 'Blackout' on my stereo at work.

Fact.



Not bored or anything.

Kazakhstan is the worlds ninth largest country, it covers an area about the size of western Europe.

At the present moment, it is snowing in Almaty but unlike the UK, the country hasnt ground to a halt at the first signs of snow. And unlike the UK, no-one speeds in their cars here - guess Darwinism means only cautious and sensible drivers survive. I use those terms in the loosest possible sense regarding lane discipline or the very disctinct lack of it

It is a balmy -16 degrees C in Astana, the capital. I say balmy as its got warmer from yesterday when it was -26 degrees C.

If you feel like complaining about the weather in the UK, remember it could be worse. :P This could be your weather forecast for the next five days.
