From Wednesday:

It's a personal opinion, but I remain unconvinced that weather can be described as "glorious" if people are dying from it. I am aware that that narrows the field considerably - find an area in which the weather is so anodyne that it endangers nobody and you are basically talking about Kent. And in many ways the fact that mankind has spread out from the so-called "Garden of Eden" that is Kent is a testament to the human spirit; we must admire the inventon of flip-flops for Southern France, and wooly jumpers for Lancashire, but surely there's a limit? We find ourselves living in a world where massive demand for electricity to run air-conditioning units leads to greater consumption of fossil fuels, which leads to higher temperatures, de dum de dum de dum.

I want to see England cloudy and grey again, and I want it now.
