Too cold for Kate

Apparently, much to my upset, I have missed English supermodel Kate Moss strutting her stuff on a Phuket beach this week. Despite  reports from my friends and family of torrential snow and gale force winds in London - where the super model normally resides - she was apparently shivering over here, as if chilled to her delicate bones.

While, granted, she had apparently just gone for a dip and was wearing nothing more than a skimpy bikini, surely it hasn’t got quite that cold here yet. And the lack of clothing is no excuse, as I’m told that she doesn’t wear that much more on a night out in the Big Smoke.

Despite living in this part of the world for quite a while now, I am still not accustom to the heat. While the locals and the veteran expats stay as cool as cucumbers in their jeans and sweaters in the baking sun, I am still running for shade wherever I can find it, and you’d be lucky to ever catch me out of a pair of shorts.

I imagine this is also the case with our Kate, as although I have no doubt that she sees her fair share of exotic places, at the end of the day, she still lives in London, and, therefore, has no right to complain about the weather anywhere else in the world.

In reality, however, I am not offended by Kate’s shivering in Phuket. I just hope that the chilly sea winds have not dissuaded her from returning again sometime, when I would be on hand to offer her my jumper as I continue to swelter in the heat.
