Here's great graphic for those of you interested in where the rain mostly falls in Britain from Alasdair Rae (via LinkedIn): > > 'A slightly revised version of my 'where does the rain fall across Britain?' 3D render, just in time for the rain - the higher the spike, the soggier it is. In a shocking development, the east gets less rain than the rainsponge west. Shadow effect added as a nod to the rain shadow effect'... > > #weather #UK > > [Links now below in the thread]

Never been to the UK, as I am a Michigander. I'd love to go though. Something about a relatively cool, cloudy day, with intermittent rain seems so calming. I'm of Scottish descent and I know you don't give two shits, but something about those rolling green hills and grey skies calls to me.

Scotland is among the most beautiful places i've ever been & scots themselves are amazing as long as you dont have an english accent lol.

Ach, we have no real issue with the accent. It's just often the first warning sign that you're speaking to a twat.

I know plenty of cool English people, some are even friends and family, but I also know plenty of twats. Every country has twats, but England seems to have them at a higher rate than many others. So Scots may be wary if they hear an English accent because of a disproportionately high amount of twats, but as long as you're not a twat then all's good.
