Isn't it marvellous, nearly the whole of the North has put up with this weather for nearly a week, yet until yesterday the South has mainly got away with it.
Yet now there are endless reports via the Media of the public transport system grinding to a halt, supermarket shelves being emptied, passengers stranded overnight on freezing trains, police forces in the South East said workers should leave work early.etc. etc.
Are Southerners not made of stronger stuff or can't the media bother to venture North of Watford?

Nothing north of Watford worth visiting is there? I thought all that was up there was rusting coal-mines, and starving whippets. Maybe I'm wrong, but I've yet to see it...
As for stronger stuff, well it's only news because the south basically pays for the north, and economic damage down here means you norvenners won't get as much money from t'social to spend on t'bingo and down t'pub

Just North of Watford runs the M25. It seems to be the most congested part of that motorway even in trouble free weather but to have HGV drivers sleeping in their cabs overnight shows how little of the motor tax revenue is spent on our roads.
Therefore you could say its not the fault of the motorist but the chancellor diverting his money elsewhere and the soon to be funding of the high speed line between London and the North.
