That is just being lazy tbh !

Ive just walked 2km in the snow after nightshift to attend a 2hour class. - Looking forward to say hello to my bed in a few hours.

I just had to do my paper round in it.

Horrible conditions. It seems that under the snow is just a thick layer of ice. About 3-4 times I had tried to turn the corner and literally skidded a couple of feet and landed on my ass.

Not fun

But no school! YAY! ^^

Grats!
I'd be glad if I didn't see snow for a day.

Like i said in general, I'm sick and tired of this winter "wonder" land allready. Finland is a bit different i guess.

Also pointed out;

What I don't get is this "Oh it snows, emergency! Don't leave home!" thing alot of countries have

Sometimes it's been snowing like sparkles from fifi's arse here, with temps down to near 40-50 celcius, windfactors to that and still noone even thinks about skipping work. Even pre-schoolers rough it up.

Snow is a rare event in alot of England. Thus we try to milk this rare event to hell & back! ^^

QFT, snow isn't normal here Seal, so nobody is prepared in a way!

 

[old.Tohtori]

But...umm...hat, gloves, scarf(optional) and a cup of coffe?

That's about the preparation you need to walk to school/work

Or do ALL english people live a 100 miles in the forest away from work?

 

[enkor]

english people make me laugh, snows a bit and everyone goes crazy, like they are 12 or something

ok broken down;
we never really get snow (this is the second time in about 3 years if memory serves me right) where we have had enough to make a snowball, so when it snows heavily there are insufficient provisions to deal with it as it only happens once in a blue moon.
So only heavily used roads get gritted etc..

Finland regularly gets snow, so its economically viable to buy the provisions to deal with it

makes me laugh europeans find it such a difficult concept to get their head around seeing as we go through this every time a post like this is made

 

[old.Tohtori]

Yes yes, roads are jammed etc. That's not at all hard to understand.

But what i was wondering is that can't people walk?

In my defence, my school is 7-8 miles away so that's a no-go for me

Yes, that's an accceptable defence

If you don't have someone who is willing to drive a car there. Which funnily enough most finnish people do with first snow

 

[CorNokZ]

Sunny and warm down in Portsmouth

Portsmouth - Heaven on earth

We also have full sunshine in Copenhagen atm.. Hope your snowy weather will move to the french alpes!

Problem with us is you get the weather warnings etc. from the Met Officer who state 'do not use the roads unless you absoluotely have to.' Most of us look at that in the context of 'only in dire emergencies,' which obviously school etc. isn't.
