Default ****ed Off with it already!

Well so far we've only had two days of these cold Northerlies and to tell
u the truth I'm totally ****ed off already. How anyone can say they love
Snow [Will and loads of others here] in this country at least is
completely baffling to me. After all the alpine/continental type clear
crisp cold stuff hardly ever transpires here so i dunno what all the fuss
is about. For the most part its dull, damn freezin, and thoroughly
miserable and I'm in west London too! which is hardly - a bearing the
brunt- location. I been out all day wrapped up too plus am quite used to
the outdoors and I come home feeling really exposed and in need of a hoyt
bath and i'm going to bed early. Has this something to do with such a kind
winter we hads I wonder? I tell you all these Will Hands in the world
won't convince me that its exciting. Exciting? what the heck is he on
about. What has really put the tin hat on it is I checked the BBC long
range and oh God no they are forecasting this flow well into the first TWO
weeks of April!! How thoroughly terrible is THAT for a thought. At least
the sun if it comes out at this time of year could compensate it slightly.
But you get no sun out of Highs to the NW and Lows to SE in East and South
Eastern areas, which is predicted. I'm in the wrong country I know, I
should be wintering in southern Spain. I'm retiring soon I know were I'm
going from NOV - MARCH from then on. Anyone back me up here or are you all
lily livered Will Hand supporters?

You can call me Lily ;-) But seriously there are lots of people on here
that agree with you, but they still put up with the snow lovers, pathetic as
we are at times. ;-)

P.S - we would prefer the good old fashioned, dry Alpine stuff as well.
