    Trust me any quakes we have in the UK are just a laughable embarrassment compared to yours.

    If youre earthquakes are the equivilant of mile high rollercoasters with limitless loops, twists and gravity defying drops our quakes are a pleasant gentle ride on the teacups with your baby.

    Even flowers survive our hurricanes and if we had volcano's old people would bathe in the 'lava' pools to open their pores.

    We are shit at natural disasters

    I'm an earthquake survivor. I'm still waiting for a TV crew to turn up and interview me.

    Don't feel bad, in order to fit the requirements for interview you need to ideally be a middle aged, fat woman, intermittently sobbing and sighing with a wet dishevelled look and ideally some mud or soot on your face.

    It's bad enough there has been a tragedy, the tv companies obviously know they need to at least get some survivors we can laugh at and feel better again.

    Remember behind every tragic moment is a great little bit of comedy just ideal for a 30 second slot

    I feel cheated. Other natural disaster survivors get serious coverage on the news channels. We got nothing.

    Ah well, if you were fat and funny looking you may have been interviewed.

    I heard Rhun was actually a studio guest on the Welsh local news

    haha hehehe lol err no. We get wind gusts.

    Kite flying weather is about as dramatic as it gets for us.

    What's funny though is how under prepared we are for any natural weather disasters.

    A couple days of rain and a Welsh village will get completely wiped out.

    Every autumn trains get delayed and sometimes even cancelled because of leaves on the track.

    Two or more consecutive days of sunshine and we have national hose pipe bans and have to share baths.

    A night of snow will grind any UK city to a halt forcing schools, businesses and even hosptitals to close.

    If we had your weather for just one month I think that would be enough to completely destroy the entire UK infrastructure and you Americans would have to come over and save us.

    We are the worst nation at coping with bad weather in the world.
