It's good for growing crops, tho. If it was all sun and dry weather like May/June, we'd starve to death
The keen gardeners among us will be loving this rain. Our butts were completely dry by mid-June, so it's good to see them filling up again.
I think it’s the greenest I’ve seen the garden in July. First time I’ve been able to put in new plants mid summer too.

There's a cream for that!
Yeah 2 months of zero rain isn't great. A. Soggy mid season July isn't ideal either.
This stuff just pushes me more and more to Emigration!
They are down here!

Rain all day in central London today 
Agreed. The country is depressing for majority of the year and now even in the summer we’re all sitting at home because it’s wet and awful outside. I’d much rather be in the garden with a beer enjoying a lovely evening.

It’s pure selfishness on the part of those people
I would take what we have now over this.
Yeah me to and i love Rhodes when its hot. Situation on the South of the island is not good. 40 celcius and winds arent helping.
Don't get too depressed might get few sunny days summer doesn't end till 23 Sept 2023

Must be hell for the wildlife, given we destroy more & more of their environment and they have to adapt, now they have to adapt to heatwaves and fire destroying more of their environment, some wild fire is essential but probably not on the scale we're seeing
Yes because it's all about your holiday being ruined..
I guess it depends where you live. The south coast gets quite a lot of sunny weather throughout the year and it's also generally the hottest part of the country.
There's nothing selfish about it. This isn't the mediterranean, it's the UK. If you want constantly hot sunny weather you'll need to consider moving to a continent where that's the norm. Additionally I think it's just as selfish of you to want people to suffer just because you want it hot. Try sparing a thought for those with medical conditions that have made the summers of the last few years a completely miserable experience.
