As Brits, we love to talk about, perhaps even complain about the weather.  We thought that we were being a little self centred with our perspective on the weather over the last year,  not so.  We have talked to people all over Europe, residents and visitors.  The common theme is that the weather is, colder and wetter.  Spain, flooding the worst in living memory, snow, heavy, prolonged and reaching right down to the southern med, plus freezing temperatures.  Gibraltar, unusually wet, cold and windy.  UK, snow, freezing cold followed by heavy rain and cold winds.  Switzerland, some of the alpine passes were opened three weeks later than on average and there is still an un seasonal amount of snow on the tops.  Southern France, rain and thunder storms in early/mid June.  People who know the area and are regular visitors complain about having one sunny day in three weeks. 

Whats going on?

  1. Janet,
    The one thing that all the weather patterns have in common is you and Keith being there!!!!!!!!! Perhaps you are jinxed. Thinking about it the further away you are from England the weather here gets better and better. Can you please come home after the end of the summer!!!!!!!!!!!
