What lunatics!

All I said is I enjoy a lot of the food options and the vibe in New York City over the other options. Suddenly they are calling me Irene and saying I am a troll because I did not say London is the best for me!

Reading over the thread, they have done the same with other posters if they do not pick London.

On the other hand you are right, this is a live webcam of Trafalgar Square, it's windy and raining right now.

No it isn't!? It has been rather pleasant here today, not windy, not cold, not rainy. I've spent the afternoon in the Garden with my Mrs, she's not well and we've had a barbeque, sun shining a few fluffy clouds, temperature in the twenties slight breeze, Of course you wouldn't know that would you because you don't live here!!

Lol gimme some of the drug you are on. It was definitely raining and windy until 7pm. I got very wet. It’s now very cold for a summer. Tomorrow it’s gonna rain and temperatures between 14-18C typical nasty weather in London.

I love London and I love the climate in the UK. I also love my home city of Sydney but it is the winter I prefer here. The summer can be hot. Despite my best efforts my whole adult life, on my last visit to the dermatologist I had thirty solar keratosis sunspots zapped but at least did not have any full cancers cut out this time. It is tiring having to hide from the sun all the time.

London is dynamic, the food is great, the people are helpful in our experience.

In Australia, its always recommend that a person use sunscreen with an SPF of 50.

It was not available when I was young!
I simply do not like hot weather. Never have.

Agree with you about London. I am really surprised about how helpful people are, maybe because there’s a stereotype that London is a cold and an unfriendly city, but I have found very lovely and helpful people. There’s also the stereotype about London having bad food but that’s not the case. I still prefer Chinese and south East Asian food in Sydney but London does pretty well for Turkish and Caribbean food (something I rarely saw in Sydney). Indian food is also great here, and there are lots of American chain brands that you don’t find in Australia such as five guys, shake shack, etc.
