Well, yesterday it was desperately FOGGY, but today, it's just me. If you'd like to see a bit of Freiburg, here is a webcam that you can control from your PC! (You may have to wait your turn, but shes's got a great arse and it's worth it!)

Perhaps one of the FOGs could answer this question: Is there a grammatically correct time to use "horrid" as opposed to "horrible"? They are both adjective forms, and are apparently synonyms, but in a sentence "The weather was horrid." to me sounds almost childish when compared to "The weather was horrible." and hence the latter sounds correct. But for the life of me, I don't know why. Any thoughts?

I think either would be acceptable. The 'horrid' option is more economical with letters.

I see that there is an ever increasing number of members in and around London! Or are these markers for "FUN" ("FOGs' Underground Network") where specially trained FOGsters are doing their work?

I see that bloody X Factor has finished at last. This song that's been released smacks to me of a typical move by the recording company to monopolise on the season rather than spend on a decent original song.

I heard it for the first time today, 'Hallelujah', I wonder if the 'Hallelujah Chorus' might have been somewhat inspirational in this, and if you listen to the guitar riff, doesn't REM's 'Everybody Hurts' come to mind?

Plagiarised, profiteering rubbish. FOG FOG FOG.

He didn't manage to get around the world in eighty days because not only did he forget his visas but he also forgot his passport too!

He COULDN'T, you nitwit !!!!  American Express didn't start their card service until October 1, 1958. Thus, as the story of Mr. Phileas Fogg's trip starts on the day of October 2, 1872, he could not have taken an AmEx Card around the world as American Express was still confining their operations primarily to the State of New York.

Then she deserves to be properly FOG'ed but she would probably enjoy it, overriding the purpose of such castigation.
