Spoiled

Last June it rained two days; the rain was not heavy and it was not cold. It was a pleasant relief after the stifling heat of Venice. But my Portuguese friends, who do not know Venice, complained bitterly. What terrible weather! I smiled. How is the winter? I asked. Awful! they said. It rains cats and dogs. Look outside, it’s just like this. Yuck!

There is only one conclusion: the Portuguese have been spoiled by their divine weather.

Have fun and don't let any false sense of politeness stop you. (I don't read the comments anyway, but some of my readers may).
