My Girlfriend got all excited when the weatherman promised her 7 inches by this afternoon.

Well snow expected in most areas by tomorrow guys so be careful out there.

Been snowing since just after 12 here in Saddleworth on the edge of the Pennines. Very fine but constant, probably 2-3 inches on the ground at present.
I don't have to Google anything, my wife knows everything!!

If a man speaks in an forest and there isn't a woman there to hear him, is he still wrong?

My wife isn't speaking to me as I didn't open car door for her. Can't understand it, as I only opened my door and swam to the surface!!

A man isn't complete till he's married, then he's finished!!!
