So, from what I hear and see over skype, the weather in England is unseasonably warm and lovely right now. (Though I know those tank-tops and sunnies go on at lower temperatures over there than they do over here!) With the two bank holiday weekends coming up, it's SO hard not to want to jump ship and wait it all out over there. Where's my winning lottery ticket again?

AND MY FLIPPIN' NOA2?

Well, it's 90f here in Indiana. Much warmer than in the UK, although no Bank Holidays!

the weather in London/Southern England last week was better than the weather I returned to in LA. It was PERFECT!

yeah, I know. i was over there for about 3 months covering this time last year and the rate moved from about 1.75 to 1.86 when i left, and it's been like 1.96 - 2.00 so far this year. good for him moving this way, though! and we're meeting up in canada in a few weeks - even better for him! (not good enough for me - boo! rate covers the conversion charges from the credit card, but that's about all).

Its seriously hot in this little box. It will be say 70F outside and 86 in here and the windows are too small and shoddily put together to have any air conditioners crying.gif

Oh well, I'll just be a bit crispier! tongue.gif

Ohh you poor thing! I have been there too!

I actually have the A/C on tonight!!

This weather in England needs to hold out another 12 days til I get there!

I really hope it does, last time Dave was over it rained alot and sights always look less impressive in drizzle.

I hate to admit it, but i'm getting a teeny weeny bit excited about going now kicking.gif

silly...go ahead and admit it. You deserve to be excited! Have a blast!
Dan&Tiffany
Teeny bit, hell - I've got 16 days, and I'm VERY excited!!! I miss my cutie. All we're having in Texas is a wild mixture of the beautiful warm, sunny stuff and tornadoes! Dan was so disappointed he didn't get to see his first tornado in the 2 months he was here. Had one the night after he left. Ah well - next Spring I'm sure he'll get his chance.

Don't plan on seeing a huge amount of the weather while I'm there either, Tracy!! wink.gif
Amby
yeah I'm in southern indiana and it was 90 here today. I stayed inside most of the day. too hot for me!
homesick_american
It's a beautiful day, but it's a tad cold for my liking. Definitely too cold for tube tops! In another week or two the weather should be warmer; there is nothing like May/June in England. The weather is usually glorious.

Aint that the truth! Certainly more pleasant than summer in Central FL!

Since I moved here, I noticed that because I'm more inland than when I lived in Lauderdale...it's wayyyyyyy more uncomfortable during the summer. Yep, that should have seemed more straightforward to me, but experiencing it and knowing it are two diff things! Plus it's really northern central fl and with the actual season change here, I would have assumed it would be hotter down there.

I miss the sunshine of the NE without all the humidity of a sauna. sad.gif

To all those going over...I hope you have a great time & a wonderful reunion!!!!!!

And take note...this has NEVER failed. When I am in the UK, the dollar is weak. When D is in the US the dollar is strong. So expect a change when D moves here cos we always get screwed no matter who's where laughing.gif laughing.gif laughing.gif
