Favourite part...

The school's head teacher, Chris Watts, took the decision after the temperature in the classrooms hit almost 35C (95F) on Tuesday.

This, he said, led to a teacher being sent home with heat exhaustion and children on the brink of collapse.

Most beaches in Britain fall into two categories. One type is this brown muddy crap that no tourist is game to stand on for fear of being sucked into it. The other type is smooth rocks interlaced with jagged ones, not fun at all. So the thought of all the sweating Pommies at the beach is an amusing one :P.

Ever wondered why all the Pommy tourists that come down under turn red when they step off the plane?
