Looks like some Brissie style weather heading our way. I just know the mobile is going to go off now and in the morning.

Britain has been forecast a fierce storm for Monday night. Also coincides with the maiden voyage the Queen Mary II:

Cunard's new flagship ocean liner, the Queen Mary 2, was expected to leave its home port of Southampton as planned on Monday evening for an inaugural transatlantic voyage whatever the weather conditions, a company spokesman said.

Hmmm, would you travel??

Wow! That was a couple of weeks ago - the QM2 is in Florida already! lol...
The storm did not appear anyway, although we are in for some very cold artic weather starting this weekend - lots of snow next week!

was it?!! well, you have to laugh at my source - it's an Australian news site. The headline of the article is "Big Freeze Kills Dozens in Europe". One paragraph reads:

Thirteen people died in two days in traffic accidents around Egypt brought on by rain and sandstorms, seven of them when a minibus filled with pilgrims crashed in poor visibility.

I sometimes wonder what they teach in geography in Oz schools!!!
