jocap Posted January 30, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 30, 2013 You'll need every kind of clothing- from cool, rainy, windy and warm. The British Isles are in the Gulf Stream, but their climate comes from the West, across the Atlantic, so "changeable" is the word. For some reason, the last 2 summers have been very wet, which is being put down to climate change- yet last spring was unseasonably dry, and brought warnings of low reservoirs. Bring layers of clothes, so that you can add or remove; a windproof jacket is a good idea, and waterproofs- an umbrella too. That's why everything's so green.....:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
