I think you mean 'varies from bloody freezing to a bit chilly'.

No air conditioning? How is that even possible in a place where it gets that hot?

Well if you insist in living in the cold bit, you've only yourself to blame! The majority of us live down here in Southern England; not only for economic reasons, but because of the climate. Oh, and of course, because it's as far away from lure of deep-fried haggis as we can get.
Deep fried Mars bar..........so I'm given to understand 
The fact that Britain insisted on child labour until September 1972.
The school leaving age was only increased from 15 at that point.

Britain, I loved my time there. Arrived in early June, very hot and stayed until early January. The winter was something else, for some reason I thought snow would be inevitable at Christmas time.

Do you not mean "Bloody freezing"?

I had a sprinkling this morning (!).

I had a sprinkling this morning too but to be fair I think most men do once they reach a certain age.

DaButt, a lot of people have air conditioning. I had a fan which gave up the ghost, went to buy another, no joy, sold out. On the upside, I can't be bothered eating. A cold glass of wine is still on my menu.
Quote: Hercules Grytpype Thynne @ 25th February 2016, 9:29 AM GMTPersonally, I wouldn't live anywhere else as far as the weather goes - love my seasons, and coming up to my favourite - Spring. It doesn't get any better than that. When the primroses come up it lifts my spirits.
Yes - I love the changing seasons too. Must be bloody boring being hot all the time!

I'd love that.

Christmas is usually still mild. We've had barely a snowflake for the last 3 years, but several feet of the stuff on the two years previous to that.

Well it's not been below -3c here this year, which is 'a bit chilly' in my book.
People who scream at their kids when they didn't do anything deliberately wrong. Bad enough to shout at adults for that but just plain wrong to scream at small children.
People that ignore me when I speak to them makes me inclined to murder. If you ignore me to fiddle on your cell phone then I will never again consider you my friend.
I have similar feelings for people who walk away when I talk to them.

Some children are horrible though. This may be a case of Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome 
I must admit I have found it baffling how some Britons can endure the December weather and not only think God exists but also have feelings of goodwill towards others.
That is truly amazing.

It is murder from 12 - 2 but from lets say 4 - 7 you get these gorgeous cool summer late afternoons. Sun even shines for two hours after you get off from work.
