[ti:Everything Except the Weather]
[00:14.48]Why did Harrison sell his house so quickly?
[00:22.09]My old friend, Harrison, had lived in the Mediterranean for many years before he returned to England.
[00:32.89]He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settle down in the country.
[00:41.40]He had no sooner returned than he bought a house and went to live there.
[00:47.81]Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather,
[00:52.76]for even though it was still summer,
[00:55.49]it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold.
[01:02.11]After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock.
[01:08.04]He acted as if he had never lived in England before.
[01:12.54]In the end, it was more than he could bear.
[01:17.07]He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country.
[01:23.61]The dream he had had for so many years ended there.
[01:28.58]Harrison had thought of everything except the weather.
