Really? I thought the whole country had snow.
And I'm jelous. We had 2 feet of snow here for nearly 3 months(but it is the scottish border. If there's not snow it's raining). It stopped me seeing my friends and stopped my brother and sister getting back to university.

The greenest country during Earth Hour, the nth consecutive time, was still North Korea.
