   To be gormless I would assume they are without gorm. But since gorm isn't known either.....one is left to assume it's either good to be without gorm or not.  LOL  In the context I've always heard it used, it appears that one would not wish to be called gormless.

   Look what I just found in the dictionary: gorm  (gôrm) n. Upper Southern U.S.
   Variant of gaum.
   
   and
   
   gaum  (gôm)
   tr.v. gaumed, gaum·ing, gaums Upper Southern U.S.
   To smudge or smear.
   
   Well, I think that's a different kind of 'gorm'. Anyway, gormless just sounds so, kind of, gormless.

    @ Camlo.....Yes, we have talked about "Coronation Street".  Which is funny for another reason.  When we were still living in separate parts of the world I was trying to book a hire car (rental car to us...lol) and the place my hubby (then just bf) said was closest to him was on Coronation Street.  But, between his accent and my unfamiliarity with the street, I was having trouble finding it.  Finally, he spelled it.  I said....."oooooh....COROnation! We don't have much use for that word here."   LOL

                Yes, the first time I went to England, we went into Wales a bit just over from Bristol (where he lived) and all over the southern part of England (I was only there 3 days).  The most memorable places on that trip were seeing Stonehenge, Padstow (Cornwall) and Lyme Regis. 
                
                The second time, I took my daughter with me and we stayed a week.  We zig-zagged all over England, picked up more of Wales and dipped slightly over the border into Scotland.  The most memorable places for me on that trip were Castlerigg Stone Circle, the Lake District, Chester, Cheddar Gorge, looking for ammonites on the beach at Lyme Regis, and Hadrian's Wall.
                
                I love Texas weather.  We could go out yesterday without a jacket.  Today, is another story. It's going to get down to 25 degrees Fahrenheit tonight.  32 is Freezing here.  Too cold for me!  Give me my 100+ degree summers!

                   Well, we had minus temperatures (°C) this week, and snow. I envy your very mild climate. The weather is something I'd never miss about these parts of Europe.
