I Think a blackout might be on the Cards lights flickering like mad, might end up having an ol'time Hogmany round a candle with a wind up Radio. :roll:

Wouldn't bet on it going ahead, I think they're just waiting a while longer since the time they called their's off 3 years ago the weather wasn't that bad and they got slated for it

Well I thought They can hardly Knock back a 100 odd thousand people can they?

They might skip the Fireworks and the Gun but still do the rest.

They swore that they would need a full scale hurricane to cancel another one after 2003! The weather is bad (and my lights do keep flickering 8O) but I don't think it's windy enough for it to be a problem, it's easy to say that sat in my flat mind...

I'd imagine their insurers won't pay out if they cancel before a certain time.

Made my escape from the city centre at around 5pm - trains were packed shipping people out and the good old inner circle was suspended!

Edinburgh's cancelled as well now.
