It sounds like one of my favourite films, The Day after Tomorrow isn’t going to be as far off the mark as I one thought. 😦

I’ve heard people raving about this but had no idea what it is about. Sounds like it would be a great book. Must investigate.
Me neither but it’s on my list.
Thanks for the photo of Ciaran Hinds; one of my favourites. I’ve read all the books except the last one. Martin is on my ‘bad’ list, due to his taking FOREVER to get a book to print!! Then I forget the details and have to start over at the beginning . . . there’s only so many times I’m willing to do that . . .
As to a global winter, this jury’s still out on that; all I’m sure of is that we are likely in for massive changes of some sort . . . I think about it, though, as I’ve been reading in the general area for most of my life.
Skills, supplies, tools and utensils, plus skilled and sturdy comrades who are somewhat mature (individually and socislly); gather them now! If you end up not needing them, fine; if you do, you’ll have a chance to build a much better world . . .
I don’t think we will end up with a global winter but I think the weather is already heading to more extreme weather. I mean how often do you experience snow in mid April? It could be often or not but I get the feeling that the northern half of our planet (America, Canada and the UK at least) is experiencing a prolonged winter and I know we have had some wonderful but in my mind at least, prolonged warm weather. Makes you wonder hey.
Well, in Edmonton they have snow in April most winters and sometimes in May, too. No-one plants before the last werk of May. They have had snow in every month of the year in the past 30 years. I’m mostly from the coast, where many winters we had no snow some years snow for a week or so abd once a decade or less a deep snow (3 ft or so) in a day or two; that shuts the city down for a couple of days! But it never lasts. So here, after 6 months of it, I’m more than ready for change!
All I know about the game of thrones is that “David…the only gay in the village Matt Lucus” is in it. My son loves this show. Perhaps the earth flipping poles last year might be causing elongated winters and summers? We have to check things out scientifically BEFORE we panic remember 😉
Not panicking, just speculating. 😉
I hadn’t heard that the magnetic poles had flipped, but was expecting it. Where did you find out? I’ve been following earthquakes a bit, and volcanos, too.
My son is a natural events follower…if it’s likely to happen (sun spots, magnetic poles flipping, comets etc.) he will know about it WAY in advance ;). He likes to call himself an “Optimistic pessimist ;)”
So we should watch this space for any “end of the world as we know it” news then? 😉
Yup…Stewart is the very first to know…believe me when I say that, he follows some very “interesting” scientific blogs and if you want to know when we are going to have the highest chances of carking it, just give me a call 😉 Funny how my incredibly glass half full ideals are tempered by my wonderful pragmatic accountant son’s glass half empty isn’t it? One could even say it was a case of the world trying to restore equilibrium! 😉
The universe will do that. 🙂 She likes balance.
She certainly does and Steve and I are complete opposites…if we EVER stop trying to get our own way, we might be able to do something amazing! 😉
