It was you that had an incredibly dull summer as well IIRC.

In contrast to the summer, September has been dry here in Sussex/Surrey.
Hardly any significant rain in the last three weeks.

Yes Adam dullest Summer on record here as well as the wettest.
September may still be giving us plenty of rain but at least we've had some
decent sunnier days,
with over 93 hours hours so far this month.
Summer months only managed:

June 49.9 hrs
July 93.4 hrs
August 75.4 hrs

Pretty dire really.
