'Says it all!

Firstly, a link to our local Council's website here In Salford who are keeping us up to date with how this extreme weather situation is affecting local public services.

Second, a link to some photo's on the Salford Advertiser's website. The article is appropriately titled "An ice New Year", and I think sums up very well how bad the snow hit us last Tuesday and Wednesday. Note the photo's of the Bridgewater Canal just up from Monton here approaching nearby Worsley. And would you believe how big some of those snow creations are?

Happy New Year!

Unless you suppress it, at the top of the standard Blogger web page is a header which includes the link 'Next Blog'. Have you ever been tempted to click on it? Well I have been occasionally and have then gone through a sequence of usually quite fascinating personal web sites.

Earlier tonight, after clicking through several 'Next Blog's, I found this article:

I'm not so sure about the white text on the black background, which hurt my eyes whilst I was reading it (although that's the great thing about blogs - you do what you wanna do!), but the article was so very true that I thought I'd share it further.

Happy New Year All !
