Earth Hour ?

[fossyant]

Anyone switching their lights off for an hour then - 8.30pm. tonight ?

We are - more for a little 'fun' with the kids - my son has rounded up all the candles and holders - we might start early though.

What if a plane crashes into the Trafford Centre? Could be from/to Manchester Airport or Barton. Hmm. They never thought of that, did they?

What's that all about then?

We try not to use lights and have shed loads of candles anyway.

Son has just found 27 blooming candle holders - where the hell did they all come from..... never mind saving the planet - all the heat from that little lot will contribute to global warming.

Yeah, what a great idea! Let's switch all the lights off for one hour, Polar Bears will be fine after that.

At the same time, all the turbo trainers in the world could be used (needs some research this bit...ed) to generate enough power to light up...Pitlochry!!!

Why would you want to light up Pitlochry?

The forum is going to be a bit quiet then...

Sorry - my decision is final.

I'm going to a hotel tonight (which reminds me I need to be getting ready and buggering off there soon) and they'd better not switch the lights off.

Mind you, I could always have 'stealth beers' if they did.

Right, catch you all again when I have a hangover....

I'm going out to watch the Scotland v Holland game this evening (7.45 KO) I wonder if the pub will switch off the lights at 8.30 or maybe if Scotland are 4-0 down at this point they might switch the TV off as well!! LOL!!

 

[fossyant]

Light's went off an hour ago - the kid's have nicked my Hope Vision 1's.........(OK but they are having fun....)

 

[Yellow Fang]

Well I was going to switch everything off but Brokeback Mountain was on the telly. Wish I'd switched everything off.

I was at the game and I wish they had turned the lights off at the ground
