Cynical Whingers

D

dextrous

You know what bugs me? Let me tell ya - those people who go on record whinging and moaning about how ill prepared we are for "a bit of snow", and how in their neck of the woods or when they were young, drone, drone, drone.

Well, funnily enough, we're not prepared for a huge tsunami hititng ourshores, nor a major earthquake, nor a tropical heatwave, nor a volcanic eruption, nor a meteor strike, nor a whole host of other complete freak occurrences.

But most of all, we're not prepared for the likes of you! :mad:

But then we've never had them in our lifetime and certainly don't expect them each year so why should we be prepared for them?

Now when I was a lad snow would be up to your armpits but we still had to go out barefoot and climb up them chimneys on the posh houses, often when the fire were still lit and then...........

Snow? Glaciers? Shall I pass thee shandy, lad?

Solid basalt, we 'ad. Lived in shadow of active volcano we did. Aye, it were warmer than what tha might have been accustomed to, but every morning we had to dig our way out through the semi-solid magma that had engulfed house night before.

I would awoke at 2 am, 4 hours before I went to bed, by flogging from fatha, then motha would open front door and I would have to dig through 20 feet of red-hot igneous rock WITH ME EYEBALLS, and then do 'ard day's graft at unisex hair salon.

Eeh it were tough, but it were honest.
 
Motha would call it front door out of a sense of pride and grandeur, but really it were meat grinder wi' rusty blades. She would feed me in, feet first, whilst fatha would stab me repeatedly wi' burning hot pokers.

Made me the man I am today.
