Im totally torn between, I like the summer but suffer with hayfever (*my mate says im just trying to get attention but im fairly convinced it is an allergy).

Winter is good on saturdays and sundays cos you wake up, its cold outside, you snuggle deeper into your duvet or your missius tits or both, and then go back to sleep.

On weekdays its a bitch.

Lets face it, we are british, and we like to moan whatever the weather!

Only time I like the winter is when I'm ski-ing. If I had the money I'd never see a winter again as I'd follow the summer season round the world which means I'd be in Australia right now.

I'm certainly fed up with it, and of course now it's the worst weather of the year they start all the bloody roadworks on the A1, it took me nearly 3 hours to get home from work in the pissing rain tonight, and through 3 different sets of bloody roadworks. At one point I did 2 miles in three quarters of an hour. Nightmare! Left work at quarter to five, got home at twenty to 8. What a life! Rant over.....
