Huge Weather Advice: Look Out For A News Whiteout

Swindonians are being warned this lunchtime that the town will be in for a deluge of news stories all about the snow which is expected to fall.

In some areas of town the media reports could lie as much as a 11 inches thick in column inches.

Those in more vunerable areas, those who have newspaper subscriptions and widescreen TVs are being advised to phone if it gets too much.

There were unconfirmed reports that a woman in Wroughton had newspapers up to three feet deep in her hallway and had to be rescued by a neighbour, but further investigation revealed the woman had been on holiday for a month and had failed to inform her paperboy to redeliver them to her sister round the corner.

Swindon Centric Says ; Tomorrow all that snow will be fish and chip paper! Err, yeah, we know what we mean.
