The Great British Weather

I might actually try that, Ed.
Desperate times call for desperate measures!

I've tried something similar with wine bottles.

1. Open wine bottles.
   
2. Drink wine.
   
3. Ride bike.
   
   

Hey presto! you can't feel the cold!

Fell off in Bedford Square this morning - sheer ice. Lost the bike completely.

Lucy, take two empty bottle (the 2 litres one), cut off the bottom, and cut the bottle in half (vertically).

Take off grip if it's the removable kind, and brake/shifter, insert bottle through the hole, and bingo - your own hand protector, should stop the wind chill from smashing against your delicate moisturised hand.

This picture should illustrate my point better;

Epic fail. No zip-ties or gaffer tape. Far too neat.

Go away and try again.

I'll have to try this, not sure how it would work out on the morning commute into work though.

Just drink Gin when you get into work.

Everybody knows that gin cancels out wine.

...and cover up the smell with a glass of creme-de-menth.

I call it 'Happy Mouthwash'.

Come on guys - how amateur?

Working drinking is vodka with a berocca in. Win.

Mind you, I do work for myself....

pffff amateurs. yard of toilet duck and Brut chasers makes those long winter days just fly by

I tried to get pissed on aftershave when I was a young scally. Cant say I recommend it. Was'nt the quality of Brut though.

Crushed 'fishermans friends' in vodka. Is a good winter warmer. purely medicinal mind.

Its 10:45 here, andI'm craving a sharp drink.

Bad LFGSS, bad LFGSS.

Get over yourself. It's Friday, it's cold, and you ride cycles. You deserve the fine things in life.

GET YOURSELF A DOUBLE-NOW!

My window cleaner is ace.

He's been out in all this weather cleaning windows, and nipping constantly on a very large hip flask, from about nine in the morning.

I asked him once if he was worried about it being odd drinking whisky at that time in the morning.

His reply:

"I am self employed. I am my own man. Normal rules do not apply to me."

Chin chin, here's mud in you eye...

No trains yet again for me. Might dig out my old mountain bike commuter thing, stick some knobblies on it and go for a spin.

Saying that, I might spend all day drinking coffee and staring out of the window. Again.

Breathing on the glass, for that final polish, only works with 40% proof breath I believe.

Hes just being a pro.

Necking pints of Windowlene, for that professional finish...

Still pretty bad where I am, got six inches up my back door at the moment

Jesus. Hope you have some decent lube handy.

Did you lean?

Quite a lot, just before he smacked the dirt.

Is it Friday yet?
