Good morning Gent's, a dull but dry start to the day here however rain is forecast for later.
The so called Beast from the East is also due to make a come back so be prepared for Armageddon, panic buying and the country coming to a screeching halt. Not worry a bacon sandwich shortly will cheer me up
