I don't care for sunny weather!
 
Just as well she doesn't care "if the snow comes down" because Kent has had a lot of snow over the last week or so. That is a lot for England - most other countries laugh at us because we can't cope with a bit of snow. I was talking to someone in Canterbury today and they were short staffed because not everyone was able to get to work!

I wonder if Dougal & George have had their walks!

PS I am in Southampton where it has been sunny today (we have to have therapy if we see a snowflake)

Here in central New Jersey we have been hammered w/ snow lately! My kids finally had a regular school today for the 1st time in 5 days!! Luckily it seems to be melting quickly and it did look beautiful to wake up to it yesterday.

A friend of mine in the UK once wrote me something like "We got a smidgen of snow yesterday, and that, of course, sent the country into a tailspin from which we have not yet recovered" LOL. You Brits don't seem to handle snow very well. :D

I wonder how Dougal & George handle the snow. My dog can't stand the cold & the snow.

I'm just curious Gail, you mentioned that you've had alot of snow. How much is alot to you?

It tends to cause disruption if we have more than a few inches although it does very much depend on where. Scotland for example are more used to it than we soft southerners! I know that in Kent the trains have been disrupted and as I said one company based in Canterbury didn't have all their staff in because travel was difficult.

We are in a temperate zone - we are not good at extremes of weather.

I would have thought that Dougal & George might get lost in the snow if it was too deep!

A few inches? That's a tiny amount of snow here. :)

Well maybe if Chris got snowed in, it will give her more time to work on our Q & A. :D

I'm sorry, but I think I have most, if not all of you, beat with Rochester, NY: 14 inches of snow in two days, and still more falling. It's heavy snow, too. I think they call it "heart-attack" snow...

By the way, "Hollywood" is one of my favoroite CM songs. Very catchy.

At Xmas, we got more than 20 inches! Xmas dinner even got cancelled. :(

I'm glad to be in Alabama. Today, it's rainy and cold. Alabamians don't handle temperature drops well either.

We go into a decline if we have 14 flakes!! :laugh:

We're just not geared up for it.
