sausage-factory-worker 0 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 And why would that be? Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 just a joke, but I'd rather be here than back home in the UK. UK summer is shit, we just don't get the weather, I much prefer it here Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 You would rather be in hot, sweaty, humid, uncomfortable Japan than in cooler and far more comfortable England? Rather you than me mate. I am in the UK every summer. More often than not from what I remember the weather has been generally fine. Some years even hot (but not Japan hot) with hardly any rain. Yes, rain at times but it does that here and rather more wildly if I remember correctly. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 yeah. I hate the rain, I'm not from England though, I'm scottish. Weather is even worse than in england. When I'm off I'd much rather it was hot and sunny than cold and rainy, so Japan is much better for me Link to post Share on other sites
soubriquet 0 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 When I was an undergrad, my peers all went to Scotland to do their honours thesis fieldwork. I went to Britanny. They spent their summer sheltering from the rain. My summer was perfect. A couple of big cold beers on the way back to the campsite, and a bottle of wine when I got home.

pie-eater 207 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 With big-will there. Pretty decent weather in England in summer with some exceptions. It sure as heck beats sweating away in 35+ degree heat and humidity, that is just a miserable way to exist. There are also lots of good pies in England. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 The past few years there have been heatwaves all across Europe. England is definitely hotter in the summer than the ones I had. BUt being an non airconditioner country, the summers canget a bit un comfy. Now where are my slippers. Link to post Share on other sites
soubriquet 0 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Public holiday today, non-Japan folks, so it's likely to be slow today. Link to post Share on other sites
