Oh dear, Canada!

[blamebrampton]

I arrived home to Mr Brammers asking me: "Have you heard about Canada?"

"Aren't they having an awful cold snap?"

His eyes widened with that boyish glee of having A Fact to impart. "It was warmer on Mars today than in Canada!" he announced.

Darling Canadians, I hope that you are all keeping well. Preferably in Florida!

Or in Australia … We have just finished our hottest year on record and in Central and Northern Australia we've so far spent 2014 breaking the records that were set in 2013. Happily, it's not so bad in Sydney. You can see why I'm such a ranting loudmouth against anti-climate change ideologues, though.

Climate change? What climate change? Didn't you hear not one, but two ships were caught in ice around Antarctica? If there is so much ice, how can climate change possibly be happening? My gosh. How silly. Scientists, man.

*barfs*



Meanwhile, down below, it is a very pleasant 19 degrees and overcast.

Who says books are on the out. Clearly that library gets enough business to warrant staying open during Mars-degree cold!

I have a young relative who is a librarian, and went to work at minus 33 yesterday...which was minus 51 with the windchill:)

Although. It may be the other way around; the library doesn't have enough business and has to stay open despite the cold. Hm. Is this in celcius or farenheit?

Celsius:)
