If it rains in London, it's not news.
If it rains in the Sahara Desert, it's news.
Hypocrisy?

thats a rather poor analogy.
lets face it... southerners are soft when it comes to a bit of snow and slush.... actually... southerners are just soft.

If you get snow for half the year, it's not news.
We get snow once in a decade. We're allowed to write articles about it.
|
we dont get snow half the year... we get it in the winter, maybe once or twice every year properly, and light dustings more regularly during those same periods. A couple fo years ago I was snowed in my home for about 3 days... couldnt move the car. No mention.
the news is london centric and its annoying.
