Default Ode to England

Oh to be in England now
where the wind howls
where the snow falls
where the clouds stay
where the fog hangs
where the traffic stays
where the rain falls
where the rain falls
where the rain falls
where the rain falls
where the r..oops got in a rut then!
where the grass is green (not greener tom)
cos it bloody rains
and it snows
and it gets so bitterly cold and
your dreams can never
be fulfilled
Oh yes to be in england now!

Sarah

It doesnt rain all the time! And its good to be fresh and nippy and feel that your alive, instead of walking around in the red hot heat 24/7!

Horses for courses I guess - but walking round in the cold and drizzle sure as hell doesn't make me feel alive - quite the opposite in fact.

I agree with that. Snow is still a novelty for me, so I get quite a kick out of the snowy days.

At least you can always rug up when it's cold; when it's hot, there's only so much you can take off!
