15 Minutes

It's said that everyone has 15 minutes of fame. Mr J's parents are in Australia visiting family and friends, everyone's on the beach apart from Mr J senior who's sitting in the shade. He's approached by someone wanting to ask questions about how hot the weather is, it's been upper 30's and low 40's so far. When they realise he's from England he gets interviewed by a TV crew comparing temperatures between the countries and appears on the local news. It couldn't be more different from here, white over with snow this morning but soon melted, freezing cold again tonight.
