Can I just say.....

ddvmor · **I am the Jammie King!**

I have 4 pints of milk in my fridge. And it's nice and warm in my lounge.

I'm trying to decide whether to drive into town and get Neil Gaiman to sign me a copy of his new book. Hmmm...

If you come in you can bring some milk for me then. I'm on me Jack Jones and am fed up with running up and down the Apples and Pears.

ddvmor · **I am the Jammie King!**

But it means getting dressed and stuff...

sharkjf115 · **Professional Cheese Hater**

So hurry up! Oh and in fact just get me a coffee from Starbucks or something instead. You can have something free.

You repeat yourself a lot?

sharkjf115 · **Professional Cheese Hater**

I'm merely re-enacting a famous customer we use to have. Man who say everything twice, says everything twice.

Got my coffee yet?

ddvmor · **I am the Jammie King!**

Still in my dressing gown, dude.

Looks chilly outside.

sharkjf115 · **Professional Cheese Hater**

It is cold. Fire alarm went off and the Galleries was evacuated.

No I am cold.

Bring coffee FOOL!

If you didn't do this, well then.. I don't know what to say. I'm sure even if you go in your pajamas he won't mind.

ddvmor · **I am the Jammie King!**

I did do it in the end. Had a nice chat to him about the rights and wrongs of cats eating signed copies of The Wolves In The Walls. It was great. I have to say that he's a very nice man.

Mark Buckingham was there too. Once I had been reminded who he was, I said hello to him, too. He wasn't signing anything. I think he was just there in the hope that some of Neil's coolness would rub off.

I missed the fire alarm, though. I'm very disappointed.

Ah good, hope Bucky makes it down to me then, he has stuff to collect. Not much mind

You think you're cold? Have a look at this:

Minneapolis, MN Weather

Feels like: 5°

And it's downhill from here, through March. Snow for the next 5 days!

You can say that again?

You know, you probably shouldn't be adding foreign beverages to coffee in any case...

sharkjf115 · **Professional Cheese Hater**

I thought that being English gave me a god given right to complain about the weather.

We pretty much have one season here anyhow....drab

ddvmor · **I am the Jammie King!**

I thought it was dank.

sharkjf115 · **Professional Cheese Hater**

Dank also adequately describes the climate.

Sub-tropical does not, but the people of Torbay hark on about the palm trees they've got there.

NateO · Vice JDK and Man of the People

Well, you can if you like... What do you make of the following:

http://weather.msn.com/local.aspx?&wealocations=wc%3aUSMN0503&setunit=C

Night: Very windy. Snow ending this evening followed by a few snow showers late. Low 23F. Winds NW at 35 to 50 mph. Chance of snow 80%. Snow accumulating 1 to 3 inches. Winds could occasionally gust over 60 mph.

Er, 23F with snow and 60 mph winds?! In mid-November? Lord have mercy...

ddvmor · **I am the Jammie King!**

It's like summer all over again.

Er... if you're from Siberia!

NateO · Vice JDK and Man of the People

Or Minneapolis!!

NateO · Vice JDK and Man of the People

Now it's cold:

Minneapolis, MN Weather

Cloudy/Windy
-7° C
Feels like: -17° C

Yesterday, I go to work, it's 41° F, today, 21° F (without windchilll). There aren't many places in the world where flipping 20° in 24 hours is normal...

BrianS · Still Number One

Its the same here Nate, Yesterday the high was 66F, today 38F.........brrr.

Right now we have a wind chill of 20F with 30mph wind gusts. I know we are not as cold as you but heck this is supposed to be the South.........well sort of.

Back in the day when I worked in a bookstore that had him come in to promote American Gods I got to meet him and he was very nice, albeit very strange. Said the weirdest thing to me... I told him I was a new fan and he replied "If I were a disease, I'd be a very good disease to catch" and then he doodled a creepy drawing and wrote "Sweet Dreams" in my copy....

God I love him :: swoon ::

ddvmor · **I am the Jammie King!**

Very smooth, isn't he. Bugger has an answer for everything.

NateO · Vice JDK and Man of the People

Hmmm, must be a mid-west thing. Brrr....
