They Run and Hide Their Heads

So the transport system now closes down due to:
  1. Snow
  2. Ice
  3. Sun
  4. Fog
  5. Leaves
  6. Wind

and now

Rain

Why not design a transport system that can't cope with 'mild with a few showers' and 'drizzle but brightening up in some areas later'? and we could all stay at home all the time and download our personalities onto the internet like we're supposed to be doing 'in the future'.

Why are the British surprised by weather? Actually they're not. The transport companies can simply make more money by not bothering to run when the the weather is 'extreme' or 'freak'. Thing is that the weather is 'extreme' or 'freak' once every couple of months. I had to abandon the bus to walk today. I want my money back.

Mind you. we could also blame the people who design the roads and railways and the people who won't walk anywhere.
