I am not sure if you have heard but the UK is covered in snow and it has shut down airports, roads, schools, buses and life itself. I watched CNN from my tiny little petit chambre this evening and had to hide under the covers in embarrassment as CNN beamed back reports from London……………How much snow??? And it stopped you doing what??? Pah! Said the Wolf Blister with complete and utter scorn………the bearded bastard. Laughing at the great British weather is almost as enjoyable for foreigners as snorting at the great British unpreparedness for extreme weather.
Being British in the snow is like going on a cruise with 5,000 passengers on a cruise ship and being surprised that you had to wait three hours for room service? In London on Monday, it was minus 2C. The Siberians and some Canadians would be sunbathing.
