I can tell a Brit a mile off! .... Just listen to them talking about the weather whilst apologising profusely and forming a perfect queue!!
You'll all be happy to hear that today has been gorgeous here in Nottingham ... blue skies, glorious sunshine ... I've been out for a picnic on Clumber Park all afternoon ... heaven!
oh no... no no no. I'm not British. I'm (**whispering**) American. I just... well, don't fit in all that well in America, trying to make a go of it, as they say.
And it is positively pouring here once more!
I am reminded of that Beatles song:
"Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun
If the sun don't come you get a tan by standing in the English rain..."
It's standing in the English rain day today.
But the rest of us here on the slushy Island can say a prayer of thanks we don't live in Tewkesbury.
