Will this once great nation that stood alone against the might of Hitler EVER reclaim the bulldog spirt of "head down get on with it"?when faced with some minor adversity
I think the answer is a resounding NO.Seemingly half the nation (or certainly the public sector-quelle suprise!) have taken the day off "due to the snow" schools,colleges and nurserys closed,transport on it's knees,"councils conserving grit" and as usual our massive post office has a notice "due to adverse weather etc etc" (its a crown office to the bunch of f@ckin w@nkers!!)
Took kid to nursery and there's some f'ckin mumsy all warpped up in hat coat and scarf (inside the hot nursery!) informing me "noone will be coming in today love"!WTF!....sure we've ahd about 6" but come on...
Seems the whole nation has turned into F@ckin Graham Norton!half the country's been snowed up for 3 weeks now and everyones managed ok..i can only presume the weather has now affected some luvvies or god forbid "the south"
I'm SEETHING

True, BV and I must confess, my sympathy for Graham Norton is pretty half-hearted!

I'll not dwell on Norton but If the late great Larry Grayson isn't spinning in his grave at GN'S attempts at being "very camp and funny" i'd be dissapointed!

Surely in the 40's the majority of people didnt rely on having to do an hours commute to work everyday and worked within walking distance of their office/factory etc ?

i normally walk in to work anyway but thought id get bus today but they were all called off so had to walk anyway,, a lot easier to walk today than last couple of weeks though when its just been pure ice on the paths at least you can walk easily when its snow,, really deep though, i certanly wouldnt have come in if i had to go in by car though , carnage on the roads
