Back to English Weather

We were thirty minutes from London. "The temperature is 10 degree with rain and damp in some places," the flight captain announced.

This was greeted with chuckles from the passengers. More like nervous, inappropriate glee. Yes, the announcement has signalled the end of our week long sun-soaked beach holiday. We were coming back home to reverse of our tan and increase our blood pressure.

The plane landed on schedule. The sky was beginning to clear but the temperature stayed low.


This was London sky at 9pm. In a way, I was glad to be back in London, I do miss my internet connection, the BBC news...

But then, come to think of it, how could you not want a life under the Maldivian sky, with scenes like these?
