It's been snowing here for a few weeks now and it's caused the normal problems you would expect. Crowded roads and slower journeys, delays in public transport and the like. However I hate the effect this is having and still continuing to have on normal day to day life. Every day this week I have phoned Learn Direct where I am meant to be starting a couple of free courses. I hate being on the dole but may as well take advantage of the freebies and start to use the time to better myself. I've been phoning in the morning because I know the snow is causing the place some problems and I still have not managed to get in. The staff are either having issues getting there, nobody else is going in to do any work so they are closing early and therefore told me not to bother or, like today, they are closed altogether.
I can see buses going up my street and guess where they are going? Thats right. If I could get there then why arent the staff getting there? Why does our country come to a complete stop as soon as it starts to snow?
Bah. I'm just gonna watch Hot Fuzz instead.
