Climate is weather over time.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

You should clarify that one means a very long time, as 100 years +++. After all, one can experience weather changes over a day without saying its a climate change

Who’d think that the proselytes of weather would screw up again? To be honest if I were wrong as often as the meteorologists I’d no longer be employed.
I wonder how many of those people in the picture are employed...?
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Whats the problem? They are just trying to get through to the Aussies.

Luton[^]
Not quite as bad as I make out, it seems.
Luton has the fastest broadband in the UK!

Even the publicity picture "isn't Luton wonderful!?" - the police are out in force... 
It's only got fast broadband because even signals want to escape quickly!

So much of England is about survival, rather than living.
You can compare almost any town in England to any in Europe and come to the same conclusion, with the exception of Germany, which seems to equal England for sheer drudgery.
Everywhere else in Europe I have been has 'lifestyle' in some form or another. Beautiful architecture, great restaurants, deep culture, beautiful countryside (even Germany does well in this respect) with its associated activities, climbing, skiing, sailing.
Yet the heartland of England is just one desperate vast expanse of sheer drudgery. Survival. Hopelessness....

If that is the extent of ones hope, then that is true.

Not the ones in Luton. They pray for release...

A bit unfair.
If you leave out the north, Luton, Croydon, Slough, Reading, Romford, Southend, Orpington and Dover you'll probably be alright.
