Stornoway by far.... at least there is nothing life threatening like the extreme cold in Lulea.

Ok, I don't think George Michael is gay. Scandinavian summers look quite comfortable to me.

I think it's easier to notice sunshine differences if they are mostly concentrated in the cooler months. For example, the difference between western upstate NY and Long Island is more obvious since most of the difference is between Nov-Apr.

... and I think NSW winter would be quite agreeable to me...

Edit: well, obviously it is gay, but not as much as some users would have you believe.

No sunshine data or % quoted for Lulea. I'd pick it to be pretty low all year round.
