Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I know from checking out the seasonal weather forecast for Bangladesh that Sylhet only drops to 7 degrees in the month of January. So there is little chance that the residents in and around Sylhet are enjoying the newly arrived snow that we have in the United Kingdom.

It's only November, and I now wish that I had bought that snow sledge a few months back during our short lived UK summer. It's typical isn't it? When you don't need something there is plenty about, and when you want it, there's a shortage. I mean, you don't expect snow so soon after Bonfire Night do you?

It's all gone Paul Potts. The weather is all messed up, this year is the worst Apprentice ever, and I don't intend commenting on 'Strictly'. To do so, would be a waste of a few good lines of text. Nope, it's all gone to pot, and it's time to have some fun in the snow. Mmmmmmmm, pity I don't have a sledge.

Sylhet

I have just been reading about the city of Sylhet in north-eastern Bangladesh. A friend of ours comes from Sylhet and I must admit that I knew nothing about the City, the region, and its people. I was also unaware of the extensive links between Sylhet and several communities in the United Kingdom. These links have been strengthened over time through the creation of 'Friendship Agreements', ' Memorandum of Understandings', and good old 'Twinning'.
