Gorgeous, blue sky, bright sun - freezing bits off...
...They say it's warmer today. It's all relative but when it gets below cold, further varying degrees don't matter. Basically - wrap up is what we're saying here.
David Walliams was our guest today. I would say from a host's point of view he is a ten out of ten. I remember hearing him in the past on other people's shows and thinking how good a listen it was. Not difficult when David's there. He is clever, funny, naughty, interesting and giving. I'm a big fan.
One Show tonight with Alan Davies, John Barrowman and the fastest illusionist in the world. Off to watch The Daniel Radcliffe film now ahead of his appearance with us next Friday.
Peace and Love and be careful out there lovely people. It's much slippier than it looks.

I think it is slightly warmer here on the Wirral peninsula today.
David Walliams is one of my favourites, love all his TV shows with Matt Lucas. This is what we need, good comedy and entertainment instead of all the depressing soaps and dramas.
I'll certainly be watching the One Show tonight as John Barrowman is another of my favourite entertainers.

I enjoyed David this morning, well what I heard of him. He certainly deserves some "Royal" recognition for all that he has done for charity, so does a certain CE in my humble opinion.
Maddy, It's funny, I was thinking I can't stand John Barrowman and there you are saying the exact opposite. It's a a good job we don't all like the same people otherwise the world would be a sad place. Have you got chips again for lunch today? xx
I might confess, in writing, on here that there is something about Alan Davies ;) I say that every time I watch QI, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

The year I went to Prawns In thw Pork to see one of my heroes - Barry "Copacabana" Manifold, Mr Barrowman turned up to do a bit of a turn with Mr Manifold. Beez was watching it live on the Beeb from her armchair and sent me a stream of hilarious, but totally unprintable obscene texts, basically letting me know of her "adoration" of Mr B and her jealousy that I was in Hyde Park and she wasn't!
Still think of her every day, lovely lady.

CLP Pal – INDEED it is most very cold and the roads are slippery!!!!
A driving tip for all from me, an expert at driving (noot meant in egotistical terms, just selling meself and giving free knowledge ter 'elp keep my fellow bloggers safer).... The roads when they 'ave been gritted 'ave a damp film across them which combined with oil and dirt trapped on the road surface makes for a more slippery road than when it's raining!!!!!!!
Take it easy out there.... Unless like me yer like using it ter yer advantage and getting yer back end out on roundabouts!!!!!!!
So Thursdee a 'ad a plumber around me new old 'ouse and at last a now 'ave full control of me water pipes!!!!! But still not 'ot water or 'eating yet!!!
Me stopcock was jammed and the valve in the street, but now me new pipe is in from the street and me old lead pipes no more!!!!!!
Yesterdee a got all me old water pipes out and me new ones in thus making way for me ter be able ter start ripping out me old bathroom and in with the new!!!!! (couldn't work on any ipes as they were all live and with a jammed stopcock unable ter turn it off – Thank the lord above a didn't getta burst as a wouldn't be able ter stop it!!!!! amazing 'ow the some people live, aka the previous owners!!!! but then both sad and understandable if they 'ave little money ter spend on their 'ome!!!!).
Last night a went te rme Mum's 'ouse ter experience 'eating and the most beautiful warm bath.... Complete with bubblebath bath bombs that me most nice Thai girlfriend got me and me Mum for Xmas!!!!!!!
After being in me new old 'ouse for days in cold... where even when yer go the toilet.... A cloud of steam rises it's so cold in me 'ouse.... A was lying there thinking wow this feels good.... The simple things in life of a warm bath are the best things in life!!!!!!
The best thigns in life blog pals & gals!!!! Gals & pals!!!!
Which brings me ter thinking about choosing a fine set of waterworks for me new bathrooms.
In me previous 'ouse a fitted a fine corner bath... A used ter love soaking for 'ours in relaxation... And in this 'ouse am doing now... The one luxury am gonna spend abit on is a BIG bath!!!!!!!!
A went down ter me local bathroom showroom of bathrooms which gets me ter the strangest thing ave ever seen.... The most expensive baht there 'ad many 'ole sin it!!!!!!??????????!!!@!
A said ter the salesperson.... Surely all the water will come straith outta the 'oles... Of which a was reassured it was a top of the range whirlpool bath... complete with pipes ter plug the 'oles!!!!!!
It's then memories of me Latvian girlfriend who 'ad one of these contraptions fitted in 'er 'ouse in London!!!!!! Aka zee Zvetlana.... ya!!!!! (it only lasted 4 weeks as she loved 'er 'whittle chiwawa' as she called 'im/ it, more than me!!!!)
She let me use 'er whirlpool bath.... And for me it was anything but relaxing.... It's like being in a coffee maker thast makes that 'orrible 'ssscchhhheeeeehhhhhkkkkkkk' noise coupled with rumbling!!!!!!!!!!!!
For me it was like 'aving a bath suffering from the severest of flatulence after eating baked bean and brussels sprout sandwiches!!!!!!
Who wants ter pay top wack for such!!!!!!
Am settling ter a treat of a large double bath ter 'elp improve me swimming... Cheaper than lessons!!!!!!
Or should a build me very own bath out of concrete and tiles???????
'ave a most nice weekend all!!!!!!!
Niceness ter each ;-)))))

Met up with the man in the cupboard this afternoon for a coffee and a scone - how boring are we?
Kirstie has tickets for an event at Pitlochry Theatre tomorrow - will we get there, or will the snow catch up with us? We're setting off in the morning but at the first hint of a snowflake we'll be doing a three-point turn.

How wrong can one be!
Your contributions are very lacklustre and do not really encourage interaction.
As for the posters, a small group of rather sad individuals who tell each what the weather is like and what they had for tea. Not forgetting, of course, plenty of tales of woe, illness and disaster hoping to get a bit of sympathy.

We are English; we talk about the weather - an internationally well-known and light-hearted idiosyncracy.
Regulars, most of those whom you are deriding this evening, willingly give up their time and money to raise funds for Children in Need, as well as friendship and support to each other on and off this blog. IF inappropriate issues are raised or discussed, there is an excellent team of moderators to remove contentious or spurious posts - and Chris and his production team are more than capable of getting a message out that they would rather certain things weren't discussed here. It is the Chris Evans Show blog. Only he and his team have the right to comment on the nature of the posts here.

I do not doubt that the people who post on here are generous and supportive to each other, however that does not excuse the fact that most of them are exceedingly dull.
You say that this is the Chris Evans blog, so why do so few posters ever refer to the show or what Chris has written?

I don't necessarily dispute your point. But I do respect the other posters.
But where have YOU referred to what Chris has written? Forgive me if I missed it in one of your earlier posts.

I had so hoped we might miss out on the lots of snow deal but no such luck!
Ian has been out with the boys but even he says it's bad out there so I'm not going anywhere
Luckily we have food and films and firewood so tuck up here with us if you like

Thought I would have a wee Sunday catch-up.
MBD: how amazing that you continue to get in here, what an effort this must be for you!
Annie: oooh, honestly, it was a last-minute decision for Mary and I to meet up yesterday! Mary and I did have such a good laugh yesterday, and we were fairly sensible wine-wise ... no, really, it's the truth! Sorry you and Kirstie didn't get your day out yesterday. Oh, and I have to say your final comment #46 is quite brilliant!
Susan: good luck with the move - I'll be thinking of you on Tuesday. xx
Bids: that's great you managed to listen to Chris's DID. Yes, there are loads of terrific DID's on that site.
mtd: hope you enjoyed your G&T!
JG: hope you get to see your man soon. xx
Sean: you are in a very difficult situation - I have always had to work, right through my daughter's life, so I know this is really hard. Hope you get something sorted.
Right, off to get a few chores done - didn't get anything achieved yesterday!
Have a good Sunday, all.
C xx

Mr Sezza & boy1 have just been watching a film and complaining it doesn't make much sense.
After watching about an hour of it, they've just realised they have been watching the 2nd half of the film that recorded after the news not the first half!
They've now started watching the first half!
I think the numpty fairy must have visited us last night!!

Lots of snow here, but gradually thawing out, so hopefully it might be OK for work tomorrow. The good news is that church was cancelled this morning so instead I've got a stew in the slow cooker, made roasted sweet potato soup and some date slices. Now I'm sat in front of the TV to watch the rugby.
Hugs to those that need them {{{hugs}}} xx
If you've got snow, stay safe and don't go out unless you really have to.

Hope you've all stayed warm and safe today
I have been out - as far as the garage to dry some washing!
Have had a message from the school that they are planning to be open but missing first lesson so kids have to be there bit later
Should mean they don't have to be travelling when everyone else is trying to get to work - hope they've told the bus company!

I want snow! We had the lightest dusting yesterday that had gone by the time I walked the dog!
The move is coming along - I think - and we're definitely going to my mum's for a few weeks as we have to be out of here before the end of March......the boy is really looking forward to it!
I took 8 carrier bags of clothes to the recycling bank today and plan on starting sorting the books tomorrow.....if anyone hears a thud and muffled cries of help its just the pile of books on top of the bookcase going over!!
Sezza, glad the memory stick survived!
Hope everyone with snow is keeping warm and safe

Errands for me today but just got a tad of ironing to do this morning .Then the day is for relaxing.
A very mild day here so far ,a bit grey but I'm not complaining,I think us southern softies get off quite lightly with the bad weather .
Take care all and have a good day.
