    The grass is always greener on the other side, mate...

    Where I was born has sun most days, but when it rains, it floods the entire island...

    And you are liable to be killed in a car accident daily even if you are walking on the pavement, or shot for standing up for yourself or your family. You have to BEG the woman working at KFC to get off her mobile and please give you a decent sized piece of chicken without giving you attitude... You have to open your mouth BIG to get service at a bar, else everyone else goes first cuz they asked first... No queueing, as that's for pussies... And if you tell someone off for pushing in, yup, you are likely to get shot or threatened. There is no such thing as customer service, you have to go into the stores to pay your bills like internet and phone, and it takes a full working day to renew a drivers license.

    So... Yes, the weather is shite, but it ain't all roses and sunshine abroad mate... (Yes yes depends on where you go, but the Caribbean is paradise innit?!?!? Not all the time!!)

    Just got in from a ride out me and my girl got caught in the storm from HELL! It pissed down with hale stones the size of marbles at least 2" of water RUSHING down the main road, traffic doing 60mph and hard to see the car in front! BIG bolts of lightning the full works for 20 mins on the way home from the cafe! I shit you not we got drowned! My poor old TDM black! British summer!
