You can tell I'm bored to be looking up those statistics - and its thanks to the rain here today in Wales. I expect Noah to float by any minute.

I don't know about London but is it like Sydney v. Melbourne in Australia? Sydney actually gets a higher rainfall than Melbourne, but Melbourne has more rainy days. So statistics can be misleading if you don't get the full story. Melbourne is wetter than Sydney. (PS. I have lived most of my life to date in the Sydney region)
