Default Out like a lion..........



as a result of global warming.


or the recent Budget

or the congestion Charge in London

or the Iraqi war

why 'blame' anything. I can remember storms and gales like this 50 years ago
before 'Global Warming' was a buzz word

Late 1940's when Seaview Pier was washed away.

Early 1950's when High Tides and Storms wrecked dozens of beach tents and
boats drawn up on the sand.

Canvey Island. Enough said on that.

The abnormally cold winters of 1940 and 1944 1947


Early 1950's when High Tides and Storms wrecked dozens of beach tents and
boats drawn up on the sand.


- Lynmouth Disaster summer 1952

- Christmas 1954 and the night the South Goodwin lightship got washed
away.

- July 1979 when hail stone the size of golf balls fell on much of SE
England.

- Return of the ice age in 1962-64

- the big summer storm of 1969, when I almost got washed away.


Canvey Island. Enough said on that.


Did you mention the malign effect of cats on our climate or would that
be cat-egorised as ****ing into the wind? :-)

I haven't noticed any global warmers commenting on how much snow there
has been during the winter.
