I could never trust the judgement of someone who has already emigrated - from the relative sunshine of Italia, to this grey, wet, cold, windy s**tehouse of a place!! What possessed you?

Adventure mainly
I really don't mind the weather here though.

You're obviously made of tougher stuff than me, Mr FWC (apart from Tuesdays misguided folly on a MTB in the snow).
Actually I do love it here too, on those 3 days during the summer when the weather God shines upon us. When it's good, it's REALLY good. Roll on June . Not forgetting September and PFS too...

We had snow in Leicester thus afternoon, lasted 5 minutes tops

He said "Gods Country", not Gods County! Ireland is Gods Country though.

What happened to spring? Can't believe how cold, wet, and windy it has been lately, and no sign of any let up this week. It's nearly April!

We're on British Summer Time!

In my part of the States, anytime it isn't freezing is summertime.

At least we don't have to suffer those embarrassing tabloid headlines like "Hotter Than Rome" they printed the other week when it reached 60 farking Fahrenheit! "Hotter" than Siberia maybe?http://siberiantimes.com/ecology/ot...with-record-high-temperatures-then-july-snow/

Windblown hailstorm yesterday morning, its not fun in the dark holding one hand to you face as the hail is hitting so hard it hurts .

Pig sick of it and so frustrating. Can't remember a ride for the past 6 months without it being windy. Went out the other day and with my bike having deep section rims in a couple of occasions felt myself being blown into the road towards the traffic. It really unnerved me and have no wish to repeat it.
Come on proper spring... Where art thou?

We have (or I should say had) three trees on our cul-de-sac, when I got up this morning one was in half, when I got home tonight another was completely gone. Fair play to the council they were out quick to sort them out.
