    In the UK you’ll often see teenage boys wearing big thick black jackets in the peak of summer. Even when it can be in the mid 30Cs. I’ve no idea what drives them to make such decisions.

      While when I visited the UK in October/November way back, every geezer over the age of 50 ran around in shorts. Even when it was like 10C. I’ve no idea what drives them to make such decisions.

        I’m way under 50 but I’ll be wearing shorts until October or November! My legs don’t feel the cold as much as the rest of my body and it’s just more comfortable than wearing trousers.

          Each to their own. I think “British Blu” (That shade of white and blue on bare brit legs in November) is a 'ard colour.
