GLOBAL WARMING – MY ARSE!!

Do you remember back to the 1980’s when Global warming was born, holes were even discovered in the Ozone layer above the Arctic, scientists promised us, promised, that if we all carried on using aerosol cans and driving gas guzzling cars the Planet would heat up and within 30 years we’d enjoy lovely warm weather in the UK, Inverness in Scotland would be the next Bahamas!!

Well, this winters big freeze over Europe, setting record low temperatures over many Countries in the Continent appears contrary to Global warming, more like Global bloody freezing.

Photo from Varna Beach Resort yesterday.

I’ve copied some pics from Bulgarian online newspapers today, we have had abnormal record low temperatures here in Bulgaria also, last night we had -25c in the Veliko Turnovo area, which is quite mild compared to last nights low of -32c some place near Vidin I think I read today.

Well I did my bit, I carried on using aerosol sprays and I’ve nearly always had motorbikes and cars with engines bigger than I really need….Has the World got warmer??….I dont think so!!

I even keep a can of body deodorant aerosol spray in the car that I can spray out of the window whilst driving along should I ever be confronted with some really thick clouds of Ozone on the road.

Fortunately I didn’t buy a beach front villa with pool in Inverness 30 years ago waiting for the warm sunny weather to arrive, otherwise I’d be demanding my money back from all the Global warming scientist who promised we’d all be warmer. Anyway tomorrow this freaky cold snap from the Arctic is heading to North Africa next, where according to the weather man its going to cause snow in the Sahara desert!!

  4. We need to band together and squirt more cans of antiperspirant into the air……

    • Or everyone on the planet agrees to have a BBQ on the same day, that should warm the air up!!

      • Hi Gary,

        We could even combine the two events and have an aerosol BBQ and dance around flaming pits of smokey Diesel…..We’re on to something now!!

    • It must be telepathy, I was thinking this myself, we need an international campaign, I will leave it to you, just let me know the day and time to squirt my can in the air!!

    • Hi Uncle Bob,

      Cheers,

      Dave…..

    • Bob, I’ve tried different browsers still cant comment on your blog???

      • Uncle Dave:

        I didn’t know you were having problems, until today I noticed your WordPress query.

        I have changed some settings to allow Anonymous comments, that way you don’t need open ID, or even have to sign into Blogger. Hope that helps. I also took away the word verification

        If you are still frozen in a few months, at least I will know where to get my ice cubes

    • Hi Jackie,

      Yes, actually one of the girls did have to have a jumper put back on a couple of days ago, Linda has put extra pile hay in the night coop for the chickens, the dogs have chosen to kip in the day chicken coop at night, so an extra bale of hay went in there also, they bury themselves under it with just an ear or a nostril sticking out, mind you I don’t even think the foxes would be out in -25c.

      Funnily enough, boffin Adam put Linda in touch with some chap who sells knitted toys and things on the net only yesterday, she sells a couple or so knitted toys a month at the moment, it keeps her quiet of a night lol… http://www.linda-knittingaddict.blogspot.com I’ll pass on your thoughts about doggy coats, you never know!!

      Cheers,

      Dave….

  7. Been cold here too, we had -10c that was chilly enough!!

  8. Uncle Dave:

    I hear you loud and clear. I changed some settings in Blogger to try and help perhaps this is what made it work . who knows, blogger has changed a lot of stuff lately. I hope you’re still frozen, ’cause we don’t want your ice over here
