The sky at Stansted is the same as always, grey, overcast, wet. I think it's been this way for years, never any sun.
We don't have snow - just a heavy frost which brings the M11 and A120 to a complete halt.
I think the weather dictates your mood. Moan, whinge, grizzle...
Give me the NE anyday... it may be cold but at least its changeable.
