British "summer"
Well folks, it's official - it has not rained this much in a 3-month period as it has this summer since 1766! Methinks even Melbourne's winter, which is supposed to be so awful, is better than the British summer this year...

We spent 2005 in Melbourne's winter which was much better than this
We are off school for 6 weeks and guaranteed on return in September we will have a heatwave into October or something soooooo ridiculous :curse:

The British summer stinks! 21c is quite hot in UK, bloody freezing in OZ.

Re: British "summer"
After spending 34 years of my life in Ireland before we emigrated here I can say hand on my heart that I would prefer 2 months of Winter and 10 of 'Summer' here over 2 months of 'Summer' and 10 months of Winter back in Ireland any day !!!
Blue Skies !
