This Bloody Weather!
There is a certain British way of dealing with standard late summer weather. During the first week, people have a kind of c'est la vie 'we needed the rain anyway' attitude, in the second week it is 'will it ever stop?' and by the end of the third week, frustration is boiling over as the masses sit, wipers at full tilt, in a traffic queue for a soulless indoor ...
