The cold weather is perishing

We are all gnashing our teeth in this coldest of spells. The weather in Britain is temperamental to say the least- in one day we can experience all four seasons. In fact, we have a joke- if you complain it's too warm or too cold, you will frequently be told: "Just wait a minute!".

This capricious climate suits my personality- if it was the same all the time, I would be at a loss. I like the adventure of never knowing if I should take my brolly or leave it at home. And of course when it is left at home, it rains! There's a lesson in there somewhere but don't ask me what it is.

So if you come to the UK: dress like an onion: wear layer upon layer that you can remove as necessary or pile back on. Simple really!
