The sky is blue, it's been warm and nice, and now we have snow. Up to three inches of snow being forecast for southern England (cue whining from softy southerners any time now...). ;)
We have a couple of Zimbabweans now working for us and, partly to try and keep their minds off the craziness happening in their homeland, we've been talking to them about the mystery that is British weather. How it can allegedly be spring and yet it's snowing. How the 'summer' can be two weeks in June and then that'll be it. How we can get fabulous weather in September, after we've had months of meh. And so on and so forth.

Re: Well it makes a change from it raining
Date: 2008-04-06 06:20 pm (UTC)If I look to the north now I can see a bank of dark cloud, possibly the next band of snow all ready to dump on us this evening. Hey, ho the joys and unpredictability of the British weather.
