My mother was listening to the radio this morning and "Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer" was on.
And I thought the shops were bad enough.

Rudolf was on<?> But it's still August! I guess the advertisers are trying to get an early start this year...

Okay, okay!!! Rudolf was on because it was the song of the year about fifty years ago.

Ooohhh.. I've got more - no one is listening so no one is going to stop me Mwahahah!
From the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister, Parliamentary Select Committee for the Environment, Transport and Regional Affairs guidance on flooding.
"It has been estimated that over 5% of the people in England live lower than 5 metres above sea level, including large parts of our major cities such as York and London. It has also been suggested that about 7% of the country is likely to flood at least once every 100 years from rivers. In addition, approximately 30% of the coastline is developed and around 1.5% of the country is at risk from direct flooding from the sea. As a result, about 1.7million homes and 130,000 commercial properties worth over £200 billion, are at risk from river or coastal flooding in England. Many more properties are at risk from localised flash flooding."
How exciting is that?

I think you mean drink the p**s, take the p**s means something completely different.
