I'm hoping for a snowy winter here in the states. Not so much below zero temps though.
I totally understand, this years Summer was pretty crap, in fact it actually started and finished in April, I wrote a thread about it lol: Sunburned in April in the UK??!!! How is your weather?

Ever the optimist I set off down to Devon end of May and was bloody freezing. Never been so sold in my life! Still feeling optimistic I went to Devon again in August and it rained constantly for 10 days. I'm just not listening anymore

I will have a read. I would much rather be in Devon though in dismal weather that up North!! I lived in Jersey for quite a few years and the weather there is similar (or even a little better) than Devon and Cornwall. I just loved the lifestyle barbeques, surfing etc.
I guess it all depends on your social circles. I have many friends on the other side of the Tamar and their lives are far from dull, beach parties, surfing, kayaking, cliff jumping, jet-skiing, dance parties in the moors, I could go on.

I used to live in Cornwall. Great for a holiday but a totally dull place to live.
I would have to disagree there, from personal experience and this wiki link which shows that temperature averages down here range from 1 to 4 Celsius in the Winter and 18 to 22 Celsius in the Summer.
Very strange seasons in the fact it has none. Mild all the way through (actually has palm trees because of the mild winters). No snow ever there and the summers are hotter up north! One thing that does change is the seas temperature, it can be warm in the summer with no waves or "ice cream headache" time in the winter with big waves, but totally not enjoyable when your balls are hanging from your throat.
