    Part of their problem is that generally the houses there are designed for cold winters, where as our houses are designed for hot summers. I actually know a few scots who think the winters here are worse than scotland, because our houses are not properly insulated for it!

    LOL i've found that the people who say that only say it when it's 15 degrees in the middle of Winter.. Come Summer, they'll all be saying that they hate it!

    lol did you hear of that article where david beckham apparently had the seat heaters on his range rover up too high, and burnt his nads?

    apparently he was seen getting out of his car, in visible discomfort, poor bloke.
