That may be true - but if the match is off just head down the Quayside. In my experience the totty is just as underdressed, willing and able even when it is well below zero and the snow is falling!

And if fancy a threesome just get an extra bag of chips at the end of the evening

walking about in shorts and cap sleeved t-shirts in mid winter is not a sign of hardness - more brain-damage (and that just the lasses)!

Last winter, I was in Newcastle, some works do or other and sad to say, the lads and lasses with the least on, were the ones who should have been covered up

TBH I would think the game will be called off anyway. Heavy snow forecast for this afternoon and overnight.

Only you can make the decision for yourself. You know that heavy snow is forecast for the area. You have to decide if the risk is worth it.
