Whats your favourite part of the British countryside?

@SW-User great pics Sophie!

@TheWildEcho thank you ☺️

@Darksideinthenight2 you’re welcome to it

@Darksideinthenight2 It's by no means "grey" all of the time, but the weather being changeable is one of the factors giving the countryside its rich natural diversity.

@Darksideinthenight2 What you hear is the British tendency to moan about the weather! It is not "mostly grey"; but neither is it semi-arid. The complaints are exaggerated because people tend to recall the bad more than the good. We are not alone in that - Europe's wettest city is Bergen, in Norway, and its locals are apparently are just as good at either complaining or joking about it.

Besides what do you mean by "good" or bad" or "better" weather? It is only those by taste. If we were in areas riven by frequent droughts, floods or hurricanes, or locked down for months on end by snow and bitter cold, we might have something to moan about.

What we have seen though in Britain in recent years is a blurring of the seasons, with more changeable Summers and milder, wetter Winters.

@SW-User beautiful pictures

@iamonfire696 thanks lovely 🥰

@Darksideinthenight2 they think good weather is like when sf gets to 80°, rare and still coastal cool

@SW-User My ancestors came from Northumberland to Australia in 1850s. Would love to get there one day. Lowick was the place.
