Liquid sunshine

Liquid sunshine? No, we haven't had much so far. The weather has been fine, despite all the nasty comments I received when I left Switzerland.

In fact, I haven't used my umbrella so far. Fair enough, it was quite cold a couple of days ago, which, however, is largely due to the quality (or lack thereof) of British housing.

Totally useless fact: Did you know that London has actually less rainfall than Rome?

Apparently, it does. Touch wood.

Hence, jokes like these are absolutely inappropriate (but they're funny nevertheless):
- Hi, did you have a good Summer in England?
- Yes indeed, we had a great picnic that afternoon...

However, talking about the weather is a sign of utter mastery of the English language:
This morning, I was walking outside, when suddenly a big shower fell on me!
