The warm weather would be nice some places seem to take for granted.... But England is really a lovely place, lots of problems, yes, but where doesn't, but on the whole it's a lovely island, and the weather gives us all something to talk about! :) Hey dont believe everything you read in the sun either!!! |

Went to Holland once on business and that's the total of my foreign travel. There is so much variety in this country. Granted that the weather is not always what it should be but the Earth is changing as it does every few hundred thousand years. Why can't the scientists and government just admit that. If a mere minion like me can work that out surely all their massed brains should be able to. But as Alfred Wainright said...there is no such thing as bad weather.....just the wrong clothes!! |

I am proud to be working class and my wife was a welder in the ship yard, having given up the coal delivery round - those heavy sacks played havoc with her nail varnish. Take up the good fight brothers and sisters. With heads held high we go into battle against the ruling classes. Remember to shout the battle cry : England ! St.George ! Arthur Scargill ! What do we want ? ! England ! St.George ! Arthur Scargill ! |

We are all in it together - apart from Cameron, The Eton Hooray Henry Boys, and the Diamond geezer. With a desire for true socialist policies I'm moving to North Korea. Don't start moaning about curried labrador and rice, doubt if you have tried it. Off to fill up the Trabant now. Keep the red flag flying comrade. |
