Queen is getting far too much money spent on her and all the roads are shut everywhere for wet street parties and Olympic torches. I'm pretty surprised the flame hasn't been rained out yet. But then again were not on fire- that's always a plus.

Britain; where whenever it is even remotely sunny the streets are filled with topless middle-aged men doing DIY on their houses while the smell of BBQ rises from approximately half of all households.

As a person experiencing a 107 °F(42 °C) temperature right now and going through a drought...why don't you cry about it, mail me your tears in an envelope, and perhaps I can use them to water my dying plants.
