Gone cold these last few days hasnt it. Dya think theres any possibility
the
weather people may be right about this winter is going to be the coldest
we
have had in the last 100 years?

Quite possible.
Do you remember the deep snow in the 1970s and again in the 1990s? I also
remember seeing snow
once in the summer.

It really must be cold as my cat, a very bushy "medium longhaired", is
usually outside about 18
hours a day. He is usually out at night and in the snow, and sometimes
disappears for days.
Right now he goes out for a few minutes, maybe an hour to do his business,
then he comes back
in and curls up for hours.

My tomcats also very bushy but hes a lazy snoozecat anyhows. Got a tail like
a squirrel he has. He hardly goes out at all except for pooping in the
neighbours garden but he was knocked down and severely injured when he was
young so i guess he just feels safer indoors.

I suppose they will blame this *cold* winter on "global warming", just
like they do the warm
summers. These people are no better than the Jovos, constantly telling us
the World is ending.
Going back decades, one warm summer was said to be a sign we were moving
closer to the sun,we
were all goint to fry. Then a cold winter meant we were drifting away
from the sun and were
going to freeze. Next came the winds of the late 1980s - "there will be
no gales here,
Madam" - and that was the end of the World coming.
Now, everything is blamed on global warming... whether it is hot, cold,
windy... or just a
little different.

Couldnt agree more Pete. They say its going to be the coldest winter in 100
years probably due to global warming... ok.. so why was it so cold 100 years
ago? Likewise the summers supposedly getting hotter but i remember 76 and
there hasnt been much recently anywhere near that. I wonder why as were
supposed to be getting hotter. I dont support the Global Warming issue at
all although i do agree, more for the sake of our lungs and general health,
that carbon emmisions/ chemical toxins in the air should be lessened and
trees replanted. I just see that as common sense though rather than this
hyped up "were all going to die" malarky.

Although it has also been said that weather goes in a cycle, much longer
than our life-span,
this hardly ever gets mentioned. In fact, in one place where it is
warming up, people have
said they can grow certain crops... again. Suggesting that they are going
through a cycle, not
the end of the World.

Maybe we should have a blog site.

Indeed. Still it makes the government millions in related eco-taxes.. we
have to fund our asylum seeker friends somehow )
