The Big Chill

Since the Met Office mentioned last week that this week could be a bit chilly, the media have been in full-on tabloid-frenzy mode. "Big Chill To Hit In 48 Hours" for example. To be honest, if we don't get a full-on blizzard and proper arctic conditions -- I'm thinking at least -10°C before wind-chill and a foot of snow piled up, I'm going to be very disappointed.

Language

So Bastien has aquired a Scottish accent from reading Irvine Welsh. I hope the same doesn't happen for me -- I'm currently reading The Adventure of English and if I start speaking in Old English I'll get some very odd looks...
