Just my bad luck

Been stuck here since New Year's Eve.

Sheer hell.

So wish I was back at work instead but what with being surrounded by 7 foot snow drifts what can one do but turn to (yet more) drink?

Happy Two Thousand and Ten (as I have decided it definitely is to be called).

God - isn't that aerial view of the Tan Hill Inn spectacular? Surely you are kidding - you haven't really been at The Tan Hill Inn have you? I admit I can be rather gullible at times.

Happy New Year JJ, I hope to be in your neck of the woods soon (definitely when the snow has gone!!)

Hope you're all well xxx

I would dearly love to be snowed in somewhere like that. Yes I too am thinking (like Mr Y. Pudding above), are you really stuck there? Either way, I'm jealous of those who, erm, suffered such an ordeal..

Happy 2010 to you x

You are one of the ones trapped at Tan Hill? LOL! I heard about that just today. Spectacular location to be trapped, but I would imagine it gets old very quickly with that number of people trapped in a small space!

Hey - I know someone famous-ish! :)

Oh dear - I feel guilty now for spinning you a line. I am afriad I did not really have the 'misfortune' to get stuck in the pub for three days!

Wondering now if work would also have believed me if i had used it as an excuse for another day or two off...too late to find out sadly ;-) And anyway - my boss would probably have taken Gill's line!

Happy New Year to you all.

And Moo - hope to see you soon darling x

At least you were in the pub able to do pub quizes, you could be in that darn lighthouse instead.

Ha ha - just to make you feel really rough, one of Neil's colleagues was in Jamaica for Xmas/New Year and last week fund that with Gatwick closed she would have to stay in the Caribbean for an extra week!

Such hardship.

She was due back today.

C'mon I want to know what happened before Xmas!

Joe - To the lighthouse has a certain ring to it.

Oh Lisa - that sounds so dreadfully marvellous!

Oh Steve - wishing I could tell all, but due to a mix of bad weather, illness and sheer bloody incompetence the matter that should have been done and dusted on the 6th January remains unresolved. Hopefully any day now....
