You also have cities in Germany that are cloudier and colder, Germany gets colder winters for sure, why is the UK so terrible to live in exactly? You said yourself its not pleasant to live in but I want to know why EXACTLY? I work with a Canadian who, when he lived in Canada, worked with a woman who lost her toes to frostbite because her bus was late!!!! Now tell me why it would have been 'worse' for her to be at a bus stop here waiting for a late bus? Hey maybe she thought, well I may have lost the toes off my foot but at least it wasn't a 'cloudy day'!

Yeah and I'm sticking by it. If most did find it comfortable you would make some top 10 weather list of Europe, you don't.

The only one calling it comfortable was you, so please it's not impressive, your opinion.

And which American posters called me a troll?

So tell us EXACTLY what is so uncomfortable about the weather in the UK? Why is it more uncomfortable than Moscow? Or Madrid? Or Paris?

What 'top 10 lists'? London is in the top 10 of the driest capital cities in Europe, so there's that. It doesn't get as cold as most European cities, either.

You keep setting up strawman, I never said it was more uncomfortable than Moscow.

Madrid otoh is warmer and sunnier. Less likely to have the sensation of being cold, tired, lethargic, depressed due to the weather.

Paris is about the same as London, but I like it better because it's more cultured. But now South France...

If you don't find 10C cold, then that's because you dealt with very cold weather prior, and are acclimated.

But none of the above changes anything - if the UK were such a comfortable climate, it would be the highest ranked in Europe, a lot of people come out and rank comfortable climates for Europe, I never saw the UK on any top ten list. Funny enough, Malta (if you consider that Europe, I don't) gets number 1 on a lot of them.
Lol, why on earth do you not consider Malta to be in Europe?!?

So where is this factual evidence that MOST people do not find the UK climate comfortable?? Still waiting... Your personal opinion counts for nothing

Mild climate are comfortable for the reasons I have already given, you are either being deliberately obtuse or you are a bit special...

Have a look through the forum yourself & find out who else thinks you are a troll, stop being lazy...
