Thing's We've Learnt This Year..

Snow is Evil!
"Awww isn't that lovely?" rings out throughout the land, and in theory they are correct, but in practice, as a country we simply cannot deal with those tiny 6 sided flakes of frozen water. We tend to loose all sense of balance, driving ability and go generally a bit strange. This causes car crashes, falls and lot's of completely over the top news reports about an inch of frosty white goodness.

2 isn't Always Better Than 1.
Simply, David Cameron and Nick Clegg fail.

We are Rubbish at Football.
Remember the World Cup? In the 2009-2010 Barclay's Premiership under 40% of the players were English, we are simply rubbish at sports we have invented. This extends to; Tennis (The highest ranked English men's player at the end of this year was James Ward, ranked 201st. The highest ranked female is Elena Baltacha ranked 55th, whose parents are both Ukrainian). Badminton (Highest ranked male: Rajiv Ouseph who is 14th. Highest ranked female: Elisabeth Cann who is ranked 32nd).


There are of course lots of other things, but I was far too busy enjoying myself to remember any of those.


Merry Christmas to all!
