You’d have thought after 25 years of living in Scotland with its cold and its rain and its generally piss poor weather I would be able to bear the freezing temperatures during this February cold-snap. But I can’t. I really, really, hate it, I want to live in Barbados.
The fact is that the cold slows you down, makes you lethargic and leaves you with no other desire or inclination but to stay sedentary, preferably beside a heater and make copious cups of tea. And it’s pretty obvious that most people would prefer to live where it was too hot than where it was too cold (except if you’ve got high blood pressure that is).
So, I have to say I’m with the great Princess Nikki on this one.
