mrbojangles Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 How on earth do Russia and Canada cope. Geared up for it, I presume. Snow doesn't happen all that much in the UK so the infrastructure isn't prepared. I don't think you can even use snow chains on the roads in the UK. I flew back into the UK on friday, i can't get back out, quick enough!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Perhaps we ought to send aid-parcels, with all our no-longer-needed winter-woolies & thermal-underwear, sort of like food-parcels in the old days ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnsurin Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 (edited) If it's to sunny - problems. If it's to wet - problems. If it's to windy - problems. If it's snowing - problems. England a first world country. Someones having a laugh aren't they? A change in weather (which was forecast, so was no major surprise), and the country comes to a standstill. What a joke for the country that started the industrial revolution and accomplished so many other great achievements in days gone by. John.....

Duh, well no matter what great things it has achieved, one of them doesn't include stopping heavy snowfall, afaik, so what's your point like.
