I realize that the UK is not usually not as rainy as the international
stereotype, but if this keeps up the rep we be well deserved :-)

It must be particularly gloomy this winter. Your days are super short
(it gets dark real early), it is frequently overcast and there is no
snow on the ground to brighten up the landscape.

Whoops! Ignore my double negative. I meant "not usually as rainy"

What would upset them is if Lancashire was enjoying it.

The other stereotype is that the weather is uniform throughout
the UK. It's not. We have just had a gorgeous weekend with
plenty of sunshine and only a few spots of drizzle this evening.
It was a tad windy some of the time, admittedly.

Not here it isn't.

Ah, but just think of the long summer evenings when it stays
light until after 10 o'clock!

True. But only 'frequently', not 'always'.

Yes, Anne, the long summer days must be nice. It's always pleasant to
have a lot of time after supper to be outside during the summer.
I'm used to stereotypes too. People tend to think that it is always
cold in Canada. I lived in America for many years and when people
learned that I am from Canada, out popped the ignorant weather
comments.

Does it though? I was in San Francisco (which is in the southern half
of the US) in December one year and if I remember right it didn't get
dark much later than it does in southern England, perhaps half an
hour? Anyhow the stupidly dark evenings (i.e sun going down before
4.30pm) are already over in southern England at least, and will be
very shortly even further north.
