Yes cost a fortune to keep the house warm already this year with the price of gas and the crappy weather, why cant they put the price of petrol/diesel down now the price of a barrel of oil has halved, so we can up the global warming a bit.

I can put up with most things but I hate windy weather.
I has shifted my dish again,
It keeps setting my spot lights off down the garden.

A bit less rain would be nice too.
Would it be too much to ask for a bit of sunshine.

Agreed - more warm, sunny days would be nice. Also, smoother road surfaces and drivers who move out of the way of bikes rather than deliberately into their way.

British people are great though (once they're outside their cars). What we really need is to swap with France, so we get their country and they get ours. We get nice weather, roads, and easy access to other countries, and they get to be separated from other countries and on their own. Win win.

It's funny, though - when I'm outside of the UK, there is so much to miss. Like supermarkets, chip shops, local pubs, safe roads (compared to overseas), and stuff like that.

An open immigration policy, and the fact illegal immigrants can disappear so easily.

Ho Yes.
But as brian says we would need the pubs.
