DON'T MENTION ZE...

Comedian Al Murray - famous for his shaven-headed character Pub Landlord, who hates the Germans and French in roughly equal measures - is currently fronting a TV series in which he he visits Ze Fatherland to discover its architectural and cultural treasures, but promises not to mention "ze vor".
In Brigg, at present, it's difficult not to mention "ze veather" as it seems to be on everyone's lips - young, middle-aged or old. Most of us are sick of the cold, icy conditions and sick of talking about it.
From now on, unless it's really important and relevant community news, we are going to do our level best to avoid the subject.
We still welcome followers' images and comments on the topic, if they wish to send them to us, but at Brigg Blog HQ we are going to shunt the weather to the back of the queue.
