I spend a fair chunk of time in Los Angeles, and after about ten days of warmth and unbroken clear skies, you start to yearn for a bit of good old British gloom and rain!
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I spend a lot of time in L.A., and when it rains there you get the entire rainfall for the year in two days, raindrops the size of mangoes. And in Barcelona, the Mediterranean storms come up from the sea, thunder and lightning; it's like the end of the world.
I love to come to L.A. to visit, and then I like to come to rainy old London because it's home.
I go to Spain a lot, in winter, for a blast of sunlight to banish the blues brought on by the Irish greys and drizzle. I love the cities of the Spanish interior.
I really enjoy being outside in L.A. because it's so warm and sunny.
I can't really change for a climate. I've got to be Theophilus London in any weather.
My American home is L.A., which is the ultimate city for 365 days of summer.
I enjoyed being in California for a while. But that's the thing about London: you can't really shake it. I've always had the impression when I was in L.A. for long periods of time that simultaneously my life was happening somewhere else, and I'm missing it.
I live by the sea in Australia and the weather of course is glorious all year round.
I came back out here from England and I was there for a while and it was beautiful and it is just great to see London going from Spring to Summer and Autumn.
London sort of wore me down. I can't cope with the winters!
