Unlike here
where last week it was about -12°C here overnight, but now it's not even frosty at night and it's a balmy 4°C during the day. Most of the snow's melted now, although there's still some inland. And down in England they've had more overnight.

It's mental either way
With cold weather it's difficult to get around in the snow, you have to dress like a fucking Eskimo to go to the corner shop, pipes freeze and all that sort of stuff.

But if it's too hot, there's a limit to how little you can wear (either physically or for social acceptability reasons) and then you have water shortages and all.

We're never happy!
