The city announced a "cold weather alert" yesterday.
I noticed on the Buffalo news, across the border, it's dropping to zero soon. At first I thought "that's not so cold" and then realized it was zero farenheight!!!
Current temperature here -12c. (10F)
I was outside the HSBC Arena getting autographs from the Sabres a while ago when it was below freezing with a -25 wind chill, and every player like Chris Drury (American) Ales Kotalik (Czech) Jay McKee (Canadian) and Marty Biron & Danny Briere (French Canadians) all basically said the same things:- 1. You're british right? and 2. are you insane its freezing?? :shock: :mrgreen:
They all gave me their autographs, which was nice, and chatted until the cold got the better of their heaters in their luxury cars!! :mrgreen:
I was doing alright until my Sharpie froze :roll: :wink:
edited to just add that Bill Clinton's going to be at the HSBC Arena tonight, as a guest of the Sabres billionaire owner Tom Golisano. I don't know if anyone cares but I just thought I'd tell ya :wink: (doing my best Marvin the android impersonation)
I wonder if he's going to be after autographs? :wink:
