Should I really talk about the weather? We’ve been having some over the last few days, and I can’t say I’ve been altogether happy about it. I woke up on Sunday to this rather unpleasant sight. Brrrr.
Of course, this being Britain, we don’t get proper snow - the kind that falls, lies there looking like a Christmas card for a while then melts some time later. Oh no. What happens here is this:
- It snows
- Snow starts to melt into a nasty slippery slush
- It then turns colder, so the nasty slippery slush freezes into nasty, hard, very slippery ice
- Then it snows again
