Daily discussion post: Let's talk about the weather

[smallhobbit]

Because I'm a Brit, and that's what we do.

It is a characature that whenever two Brits get together the first thing they discuss is the weather, we all know it and acknowledge it, and continue to do it.  It's the easy ice breaker, the way of politely spending the first couple of minutes before moving onto something of greater depth.

And why not - we live in a country where one day it may be cold enough to need to put the heating back on and the next day all the windows are thrown open with the plaintive cry of 'it's too hot!'  And where in one place it will be pouring with rain and a mile away it's still dry as a bone.

So, what about you?  Do you live in a place where the weather is more guaranteed?  Do you like it hot or cold, wet or dry, snowing or thunderstorms?  And what is your weather like now?

Also, this month I'm taking part in the story_works communications challenge and sending e-cards to anyone who requests one.  Therefore, if you would like an e-card and are happy to give me your email address, please drop me a DM.  Alternatively, if you live in the UK and drop me your address I will send an actual card to you.

It's snowing here and that is bullshit.

That is entirely ridiculous!
