> I'm just curious...why does eveyone think that England is freezing cold? As the reader poll sems to show, you guys in the states are getting muchos more snow than us...actually, it very rarely snows in Britain apart from in the mountains in Scotland and Wales and probably Ireland. I left the house yesterday in flip flops for crying out loud! My flatmate at Uni (who comes from Pennsylvania) is very confused about this as she was told before she came here that England was an icy freezing place. Cold, yes. Wet, yes. Unpredictable, definately. But freezing cold?

Well, it MUST be freezing there! Y'all drink hot tea instead of iced tea. Now why would anyone do that for reasons other than keepin' warm?
