I like the United Kingdom

I'm from England, and the weather's been unusually poor recently as I see it; and I can honestly say I can't recall when it's been quite this rainy, cool and overcast in early spring: I may be wrong, but that's how I recall it. Although I do remember a few years back, it was cool and rainy even in June. But I have to say I personally avoid the rain like the plague, although I do quite often cycle in it. If I need to get somewhere, I'll take a change of clothing with me, but if I'm cycling home, I'll just get wet. But I've noticed that recently: there was a workman working in a front garden near me, and he just carried on working in the rain; I don't envy him. Also, I saw a guy recently walking somewhere in an absolute deluge, and I wondered why. In all though, British weather is not one of greatest assets; but as you say, the architecture - in London especially - is something to behold indeed. I hope the weather improves soon!

It is a nice experience to be in another country for different cultures and customs. I have been dreaming going abroad, but not having tried such a chance so far because of the travelling fee. I will make it one day when I am retired from my work in another ten years. Enjoy your travel in the UK.

When I was a kid, I read adventure books by Enid Blyton from England and have since then wanted to visit the country. Let's see if I can go there some day.. There must be a lot of old houses that it would be great to look at and interesting people to meet.

I think that if the English postpone things until it stops raining, they would never get anything done! I'm curious as to whether you are in London or out in the countryside and how long will you be staying. Are you going to the Jubilee celebrations or the Olympics?

I love the united kingdom as well. I have visited london only once, but i loved it. The architecture, the people, the accent.:) I'm seriously thinking of moving into the uk, particularly in edinburgh, since i love this city. The rainy weather isn't something that I love, however I don'nt think i mind much about it. I'm not made of sugar.:P

I just moved back from england make sure you try all the foods even if they sound gross or weird they are really good it will suprize you

I live in England so I know exactly what you mean. We are accustomed to the rain and we have no intention of allowing it to disrupt our routine. To defer activities until another time may be practical in Florida, but with the constant level of rain that we experience here it could result in waiting for weeks for a day without rain. Like everything else in life, if you experience something often enough then you will get used to it and it will cease to be a problem.

I hope you are not confined to London, interesting though that place may be, we have a saying here, you don't enter England till you leave London. So many people come here and never step outside the capital all the best, urban

Nice to feel your enjoyment. I have not visited foreign country like you yet have visited a few. I wish to visit America an d England and some European countries too. I do hope that i will be able to visit once in my life. Have a nice time.

Very nice, I want to go there one day, I love old architecture and meet people. here in Brazil we stop when it is raining too, especially me that I can't hear that it is going to rain that I get sick. thanks for share your experience with us.
