    I visited Athens many years ago on business, and it was hot enough in September! I can imagine that during the summer you'd like to migrate north.

    I agree that parts of Wales are beautiful, and a green countryside is pleasing to the eye - but a green countryside also means regular rainfall. We get used to it!

    Usually the summer here ends in the middle of October and,I'm not the kind of guy who likes summer heat.The good thing is that women are light dressed,so they're offering great "sightseeing"...

    How often is the rainfall in Wales?

    Exactly my friend
    First time I was on a bus in Rhodos the driver was using it so often I thought it meant goodmorning

    Well many years ago two English guys came to Italy to play rugby in my team and guess what ... swear words were the first bit of Italian they learned! Then it was my turn when I moved to this country.....

    Don't be surprised,surely this driver was using many more noble words you possibly couldn't know, the M word never gets alone.
