Grinding Halt

It's funny, for a country world famous for being cold, wet and rainy, us here in England can't even cope with a bit of snow.

Yeah, apparently it's the worst snow in 18 years, but to tell you the truth it doesn't seem like it. I've known worst! Here it's not even covering my shoes! Yet the country is in complete chaos; the schools are still shut, transport's going mad, people not going into work... I could go on!

I heard earlier on the news that other countries news programmes have been taking the micky out of us, saying 'Britain's come to a hault over 6'' of snow'. It's not even 6'' lol!! I'd be laughing at us too! In fact I am - this happens every time it snows, no matter how bad. Or not so bad, as the case seems...
