Morning, everybody. Welcome along to your free podcast for today. It's Tuesday, frozen to death the 16th of February. It is freezing out there. It is bitter out there.

0:15.1

They've said, bit of snow in tonight. I don't think we're going to have snow in tonight. I think if we do, it'll be a few flowery. I'd be very surprised if I wake up tomorrow to a light dusting, as they say. I like the idea of a light dusting. That sounds quite exciting, doesn't it? Reminds me of being a child and you get out of the bath and your mummy dries you off with a big towel, which is all hot and warm, and she dries you off, and then dusts you in talcum powder why i cannot imagine it was
