I'm studying and researching Malawi for Model UN at my school. The country is really poor, has a bad primary education system, a lot of people there have AIDs, and overall it's not doing too well.

True in a lot of places. Some family friends just let themselves in, uninvited
Also, trust me, this isn't lucky weather. When there is 2-3 inch layers of ice on your car, it's a pain to clean off
. Plus, power lines are frozen and power tends to flicker xD

Only people who have snow appreciate how fucking annoying it is 
Actually I more feel for those near the Canadian Rockies like I believe SLinky is. It's pretty awful when they need to cancel school because it's -40. I mean I think it's bad here when with windchill it's -20 and it's so icey that when you try to walk up a hill the wind keeps pushing you back down and it's like that old greek myth with the guy trying to push the boulder up the hill. He gets so close but rolls back down again It's bad here but in Canada it's sooooooooo much worse. I couldn't live in a place where the hottest it gets in the summer is like 80 degrees.
On another note this is the worst/coldest winter we've had in a very long time all over the northern hemisphere pretty much without exception.

That pretty much sums up Britain today.

In yet another set of survey results that surely tells us all we need to know about the state of our great nation, British youngsters innocently state that Sir Winston Churchill was the first man to walk on the moon, the Telegraph smirks.
Befuddled tykes, aged between four and ten, confused the iconic and eerily baby-faced WWII PM with the iconic and completely forgettable-faced Neil Armstrong, who did the lunar-shuffle four years after Churchill's death.

It's snowing back in my hometown apparently. Just got half a dozen excited texts.
The leader of the Conservative party was photographed cycling up a one-way street and ignoring red lights.
And the media are still talking about MP's expenses after it emerged that they can claim ridiculous amounts.
Yeah...that's about how interesting England is at the minute.
