That's what I and Lucus_dad were suggesting - as far as predictions go, this lot were right up there with the vast bulk of economists in 2007. In other word history showed they were bloody useless.

Did the bird die or just hurt itself? I feel bad now. Serves it right though to be flying around on a day like this.

No, it just flew off again, looking a little dazed and stunned. She'll be right...

I just had a moment of panic.

Shuffling footsteps in the hallway, a peculiarly rank smell, vacant stares and drooling mouths came at me muttering 'fooooooood'.

It's okay though, it was only my three teenage/twentage children, scarily downstairs before midday.

It's the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine)

A friend did have this posted on FB earlier...
