IT'S S(NO)W PROBLEM!

Why do the British have such an issue when it comes to dealing with severe weather, namely and most frequently we have an issue when it comes to snow. When we had the snow storms Jan - Mar this year everyone decided that at that moment it’d be a great move to start to panic.

We didn’t even wait for the snow to arrive, we started panicking pre-snow! I mean, com’on, what’s all that about?! The shops were sold out on “essentials” like bread and milk just in case we were snowed in. The councils didn’t think to save the grit for when snow started coming and started gritting the roads when it was raining so the grit got washed away almost immediately...
