I’m just finishing a holiday in the UK and have spent the best part of three weeks snowbound.  Very pretty etc. but amazing that everything grinds to a halt (roads & rail, schools, shops, factories and offices just close down) and most seem quite accepting of the predicament.  When we’ve been out and about in the snow everyone seems to stay huddled inside.  Were the weather to stump us this way in WA, say when there’s a cyclone for example, I can’t imagine the same complaisancy prevailing.
