The weather is worse than Minnesota even. In different ways. But I was colder during the London winter than I ever was in Minnesota. (The persistent dampness meant that I never seemed to be able to warm up all the way -- Minnesota cold is cold but dry and with enough down and wool you can warm up.)

- signed, grew up in MN and lived in London for half a year

P.S.: While the winter was seriously hard to deal with, the spring was glorious. The lush greens were gorgeous.

McDonalds, KFC, Starbucks, Hard Rock Cafe, we've got everything an American needs to feel right at home.

Is this thread of any interest? It refers only to vacation plans, mind.
