Apparently the single greatest threat to my country isn't terrorism, or the economy, no it's far worse...it's frozen water. It's Snow.
Yes it would seem we can hold our heads high whilst being bombed to shit by the Germans, threatened by raving mad islamist extemists, and stripped of all our economical value but if we look out the window and see snow the general response is to say "Fuck that shit" and begin watching daytime TV.
For all our sakes we better hope Mr Freeze is indeed fictional, otherwise we're boned.

In an unrelated series of events, I'm now qualified to run around a battlefield screaming "STAT!" and applying bandages to anything that looks even remotely in need of bandaging. My personal impression being, everything that hasn't already been bandaged.
