Freak weather!

Former Apprentice contestant, Andy Jackson is blogging for us all week

Morning! Its nice to look out my the living room window onto mountains that are covered with snow. Makes me think that when you look at the telly or in the papers the whole country is apparently 'gripped' by freak weather - roads blocked, schools closed and miles of tailbacks on every major road…. all because 1 inch of snow has fallen down South. ITS WINTER!!!!!

Snow comes down stays for a day and then goes. DON’T PANIC!! Don’t loot your local Spar or Tesco for milk and bread by finding a reason for you to jump into that gas guzzling 4x4 that you use to take your 1 child to and from school every day and then phoning your friends to justify why you bought the O-zone killing beast. ITS OK!!

Honest, trust me. Put on a coat and some wellies or boots gloves and a hat and you will be fine, your arms won’t fall off, the world won't end hey you might even have a little fun, throw a snowball, make a snowman, get the kids off the playstations and from in front of the TV and get out and enjoy it.

A thought just came into my head then… see these terrorists who are hell bent on destroying our lives by making us live in fear. They don’t need dirty bombs or to fly planes into buildings. They would do more damage to the country’s transport infrastructure by dropping a shovel of snow on the rail link just north of Kings Cross and the rest of the country would grind to a halt.

    What is the point of this blog? I hoped it would be about The Apprentice but it's just recycled drivel- and it's appallingly written, by someone who has no idea how to structure a sentence.

    I really enjoyed this blog. Reminded me that we are becoming a nation of whingers and worriers. I had a walk in the park in Sheffield on Easter Monday in the snow and it was wonderful. I'm looking foward to the spring though and warmer weather!!

    Couldn't agree more with the previous comment. Why? I'm angry at myself for wasting 30 seconds of my life reading this total rubbish. But, as it was prominently advertised on the front page of the BBC website I thought 'surely, it must be something worthwhile'. Couldn't have been more wrong. If the BBC want to fill up their website with dull, irrelevant garbage like this, then at least have the decency to tuck it away somewhere that nobody can find it!!
