Why, oh why, oh why

Post by johnt »

It snows normally at most one day a year here in sunny Kent. So why, oh why, oh why has it chosen to do this?

Wow, snowing in Kent normally means major traffic snarls and horrible weather across the entire UK, as well as a wait to open the package.

Is the weather bad enough that you're snowed in and have no alternative but to stare at the box until the time is right?

I took the day off to make sure I was in to receive the delivery, but luckily I have some work stuff I can go out to do this afternoon, so hopefully that should take my mind of the big box laying on my sofa.
