“Each time he uttered the word ‘Monsieur’ in his mild, compassionable voice, the man’s face lighted up. The courtesy, to the ex-convict, was like fresh water to a shipwrecked man. Ignominy thirsts for respect.”

Absolutely! My mum keeps me updated with all the UK weather peculiarities. In her infinitely short-sighted wisdom, she blames environmentalists and the lack of dredging for the Thames flooding :-) (The latter is probably true!) They get floods, the US gets unbelievable snowstorms while we get bushfires...
Enjoy your Sunday.
