Ash said:But Japan is nice!
"Nice" is a bit non-committal - Japan is beautiful / enigmatic / mysterious (and many other things). It can also be very hot & humid, which we would complain about if we had it here.
Ash said:England sucks!
Well, lots of our "features" do - lager louts, taxes, refuse collection, the creeping growth of organised crime, etc - but the actual fabric of the countryside is outstanding. I'm off to the Lakes tomorrow, regardless of the weather.
It all depends on your point of view

Well, I'm very sorry about all the flooding out west, but as far as London is concerned (and me), this is the best summer we've had in years!

Its not often that I think I'm lucky, living just about in the middle of the UK with no major water courses near by, but ...........
The one good thing about the rain around here is that there are some interesting plants starting to bear fruit. The attached image was taken near the local cricket pavillion.

That would explain a lot. I went there once, thanks to a breakdown on the M4 - visited both pubs and the fish & chip shop. Had to stay overnight in a dreadful hotel.
Worst place I have been after Patras in Greece (but that's another story!).

It's been wet enough this 'Summer' in the valley and I don't know where all the water has gone to. My well isn't all that full which seems to indicate that the ground water level is still pretty low. The well water level doesn't seem to be much higher than it was this time last year. And all I use the water for is for the garden.
Just been out and got wet again!

Perhaps I should have been clearer. I like the rain - NOT the rainy season. Today here it was F-ing awful.
When it rains then stops the humidity goes up to like 500% and it's unbearable.
Rainy days in spring and autumn are much better.
