Here's an alternative version I've written on a whim. Apologies to all
Daily Express readers out there. Actually, no apologies whatsoever!

Britain faces artic winter
01/11/06
By Mark Reynolds

AFTER one of the hottest summers on record, Britons and Royals alike
have been warned to prepare for the winter of discontent.

Weathermen sent out the alert as they told the nation to wrap up for an
icy blast from the Artic - and illegal immigrants from everywhere else.

Temperatures are set to plummet to minus 4 degrees celsius (24F)
overnight in some parts of the country in what could herald the start
of a long and bitter winter of discontent.

The sheer scale of the change in temperature, dropping up to 24F (49C),
will make conditions feel even more bitter and twisted, only
compounding the swathe of ASBOs currently hitting the Home Counties and
commuter belt from every direction.

The meteorologists warned that strong winds will also add to the chill
factor in the wake of the warmest six months since last winter at
least.

But last night Clarence House said that the big chill, which is
initially set to grip the nation for at least the next week, signals an
end to the extraordinarily mild weather as Prince Charles was seen
opening a new hospital wing Surrey in just a suit. Camilla wore a
striking aquamarine dress as they soaked up the unusually mild November
rays of sun.

Long-term forecasters believe the hot summer - which yet again was
hotter than the preceding winter will give way to an unusually icy
winter, with one agency predicting a 40 per cent chance of a white
Christmas somewhere above 1000m in Europe in the next 50 years.

For the rest of article, give me strength.

OT, but today's Express front page is even stupider, and much nastier.

Yes, and today the Daily Mail insists that a milder winter is on the cards.

Que sera, sera
