Worlds Collide

Last night I had a strange case of worlds colliding.

The weather reports were of sub-zero temperatures, freezing rain, icy conditions and the usual winter malaise.

As I was out and about, I was a tad worried that the road would turn into an ice rink after I'd chipped the candy coating off my frozen in time car. Thus, I came to the conclusion that I'd be staying over in Sevenoaks, warm in the non-icy confines of my mates place.

Of course, none of the Canadian-style weather catastrophes happened. I went outside about 1am to survey the treacherous weather conditions and found little more than rain droplets on the windscreen.

Another case of extrapolating the worst that Canadian weather has to offer into an environment where those effects would hardly EVER be felt.

You can take the boy out of Canada....
