OK, I've decided to stop being so mardy about not being able to get on with things at the moment due to the cold weather, pile of snow and the rest, as apparently it affects a few other people too.
Not that the news shows anything apart from the snow in Bristol. I've been watching SKY and BBC news for hours, and there it is, over and over, what is happening in Bristol. How do people feel about it. Trying to prompt tourists to say that it would be handled much better 'back home' and failing dismally.
It's really odd, seeing teams of reporters camped out at Bristol airport, questioning CEOs about
'Why did that 'plane take off while my Auntie is stuck in Morocco'.
But it's not just the airport, there are roving reporters up and down the slip roads of the M5 by Weston-Super-Mare. Loads of fotos of people queuing up outside Temple Meads, waiting for a train that probably won't arrive.
I've never understood the media's preoccupation with Bristol and it's travel arrangements. I mean, they don't even film Casualty here now do they? And Banksie buggered off as soon as the first cheque arrived (or did he? Hahahahaa)
It is all a bit sad really, you'd think the rest of the country doesn't have any fluctuations in weather,
I mean you wouldn't hear a peep out of the media if London got a bit of snow or the temperature dropped below freezing now, would you?
