About 2 weeks until the start of my exams.

by **bmstinton93** » Wed Apr 25, 2012 6:18 pm

Mine start on Monday.

I'm bricking it.

I don't have any exams this year thankfully. Just one presentation to get through and I'm all done!

Toddla T, and the crap music he plays. Ugh!!

Our office is on the banks of the river Don up in Sheffield, tis quite a picturesque location - but with all the recent rain the river is not its normal self. It is a churning frothing torrent of angryness, looks quite scary. The water level has already risen a few feet over the course of this week, another 2 foot and it'll break its banks and flood the City centre again, as it did 5 years ago. Bit worrying really, but what can you do!

Being ill makes me cross.

This so-called bloody drought.

They'll be saying its a 'Barbecue Summer' next.

I know, is the wind howling where you are? I was meant to be going out tonight. Don't think it's gonna happen now.

by **SAV1OUR** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 12:16 pm

Wouldn't surprise me if it was. As Jack Dee tweeted 'I just seen a camel float by'.

They reckon this is gonna be with us all week.

Still, there's the Alan Partridge book I could read a bit more of.

Stupid rain wish it would go. Getting it dripping in my room from leak. Hopefully be sorted out

by **Travis Bickle** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 2:31 pm

People who can't get their heads around the fact we are in drought conditions because of two consecutive dry winters, and that one weeks worth of rain doesn't negate that.

I gotta admit I don't understand it but I don't particularly care.

by **MadTheEddos** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 3:51 pm

Old songs, as classic as they are, re-entering the Top 40 just because someone has sung them on The Voice. Less than an hour in, and already Use Somebody and Dakota have been played!

by **Bonanzoid** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 4:05 pm

I'd hardly have described either of those songs as 'classic.'

by **MadTheEddos** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 4:13 pm

That depends on what you see as classic. They're not classic in the vein of Bohemian Rhapsody, no, but they're still pretty classic compared to the over-produced synth-heavy crap that's mainly filling the chart at the moment.

It's simple really. A week of rain cant make up for two years of very little rain. People who know far more than me say that it will take several weeks of above average rainfall to get back to relatively normal levels. That sounds logical to me.

Chrysostom put it well somewhere - either on here or on Twitter, can't remember. He said its like getting gradually into debt at the rate of £500 every month for three years, then winning £3,000 and thinking you're rich.

That sums it up pretty well!

Save water drink beer.

I agree with what Chrysostom, Yudster and Travis Bickle are saying, but also surely we waste too much water too, right? I mean we seem to channel it out to see as much as possible, couldn't we direct more of it to reservoirs? (This is a genuine question, I could be completely wrong.)

by **dimtimjim** » Mon Apr 30, 2012 8:15 am

Annoying me today. Drought. Yet it took me 3 attempts to get out of my village today as the first two roads I tried were flooded... Humph.

by **MK Chris** » Mon Apr 30, 2012 10:22 am

...have you read any of the posts above yours?

Dammit - what a schoolboy error. Fair enough Ben, bang to rights there.
