white sales.
georg, 15:07h
Yesterday I wasn't entirely sure what this big fat white cloud approaching me with quite high speed was all about. I just got out the car after a enjoyable drive to Bournemouth. Nice streets, no wet conditions - just a bit of traffic congestion but driving in rush hour doesn't leave you with empty streets.
So there I was, starring at this huge white cloud, not knowning what I'm supposed to do right now and therefore decided to keep on starring.
For a split second I thought this is a miserable episode from a sci fi series where a white cloud is going to attack me because I've parked on its parking space.
But ney, before I could finish my slighlty off-beat-mainstream fantasy I was not only able to see anything except the colour white, I also was suddenly covered with snow coming from all directons supported and underlined by heavy lightning.
Okay,so I am now living in England for nearly 4 years. England, where Snow appears only every now and then. There are even English people who haven't seen snow at all and out of the sudden a normal day turns into a snowstorm, degrees falling from upper 6 Celsius to a scary -2...and all that with knowing that the British Traffic and Transport System surley isn't prepared for something this as normally 1 cm of snow is enough to screw up the traffic system for several days.
And I thought England is a save place to live.
