Default Winter wonderland in some areas of Devon; mainly upland Devon

I criticise when I see things that are simply wrong and I changed the




title to reflect that. I'm really not interested in your sycophancy,




or that of some others. I find the "oh goody it's snowed and I really




love it" (ad nauseam) posts truly boring and I'll criticise them as




and when I feel fit. Most time I just yawn and let them go. Not this




time, as I live in Devon too and it's cold and green; not




snow-covered, as are most other areas.








It's not wrong. There *is* a winter wonderland in Devon. Are you




really so desperate to criticise Will that you can't see that?








That's just typical of you, to accuse somebody of being a 'sycophant'




simply because they disagree with how you have responded to




another poster.








Got it?








Yes.




You are a deeply unpleasant individual. Bitter, twisted and utterly




unable to comprehend just why they are so despised on this group.

Grow a thicker skin would be my advice; or don't post on usenet; or come and live in Devon and look out on no snow whatsoever when someone less than 20 miles away is saying that Devon is a winter wonderland.......yet again an exaggeration As I said, most of it isn't. I'm just putting the record straight. You don't like it? That's not a worry; you are entitled to your opinion, as is everyone - including me, Col. *))




The problem is that 'Winter wonderland in Devon' could mean snow

everywhere in Devon, or there is a place in Devon with a winter

wonderland. Will's text shows which interpretation should be used.

Yes. That's why I changed the *title* and said that by no means is Devon a winter wonderland.
