Its a cold winter - no its not! & Back to the fun factory

The star newspaper had a headline yesterday that intimated we were going to have "The coldest winter in a 100 years" .  The Mirror agreed and so do lots of other media sources
The Metro  however carried a story from the Met Office saying this was just not true. The quote from there has a ring relating back to the 1987 Micheal Fish gaff, "And i can confidently predict  there will be no hurricane"  So here we go A Met Office spokesman says, "There are absolutely no signs of record breaking cold temperatures in the near future"   - - - -

Its Halloween and Sally has done her usual bit of pumpkin carving

Down at the fun factory there was a prize for the "best dressed Halloween colleague".  Some were a little half hearted but a small number quite good and must have took ages to "put on"

Back at work now for 2 days and its amazing how "nothing's changed" the place still has a "firefighting" air about it rather than a well oiled hum feel to it.  The new bakery boss, "lets call her Jenny" is a cool character though.  Nothing seems to phase her and she just "gets on with it"

Enjoy the day
