Dreaming of a white Christmas?

[Brandane]

Snow was all but gone here in Oslo but, as I write this, a fine powder snow is falling.
The forecast for Christmas Day:

Far too cold for a bike ride.

Almost time to fire up the central heating then?

The price of electricity here has gone through the roof!
Fortunately my flat keeps warm (somehow 😳) despite not having the heating actually on at all.

no loons in the whole of asia for sure

But, loons were very popular in the UK in the 1970's, I thinks they are making a come back because I've seen fashion hostages on telly wearing them.

Edit: they're even cheaper if you get them from here:

My Trek is matt black which looks like carbon and is easy to spot in the snow!

My bike is easy to spot when there is lying snow out. It’s one of those in the nice warm bike room leaning against the wall.

I'm hoping for a mild, still , dry day as I'll be riding about 30 miles . So it'll be horrible no doubt.

Oh no... I've just had a flashback to going out in Coventry wearing pink satin loons and 3 inch platform heeled boots!

We (well, the media anyway) have become obsessed with snow forecasts, i frequently see media /news/ lifestyle pages with the latest one...snowbomb'...when the snowbomb is going to hit and where ?
FFS, its just snow, it snows occasionally, a white Christmas is actually a very rare in my experience, maybe once every 10 years.
Get over it media, ultimately its just clickbait for people desperate to believe anything theyre told.

I wore Loons in the early/mid 70s and funnily enough, i saw a young lady in Asda wearing some the other day, they looked okay, not the massive sweeping ones we had back then but still very flared.

Bit of useless information. In Shetland there are always a few black sheep in every flock. Makes it easier to find the flock in the snow.

I love snow, not the slushy rubbish stuff you get here in the UK but proper 6 feet deep snow. Winter sports were something we looked forward to. I doubt we will get snow again this year.
