Perspective

It’s all about perspective. On the Isle of Man today it is snowing. A light drizzle, that’s has been going for most of the night. The Isle of Man has now come to stand still. There is bedlam on the roads, anarchy in the streets, a subtle (what a weird way to spell this sounding sword, why isn’t it spelt suttle? What that all about) mix of Mad Max 2 and Ice Age.

People that live 4 miles away from work (a vast distant in Manx terms) have refused to even chance coming to work because of the hazardous conditions. They are appalled that we would even suggest driving when there is almost an inch on snow on the roads….

This is the current Manx Weather state

Crazy.

Yet on the other side of the planet, is one of our homesick brethren, who pines for greener fields, has another perspective.

It’s -23°C there, with feet deep snow, and life goes on as normal. Everyone continues there daily 2 hour commute and children merrily go to school.

This is the current Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Weather

Of course that does not distract from the fact the place is a shit hole…

Come home soon yessir fella.
