English weather is the most frequent topic of conversation. It doesn't rain every day of the year, but it's impossible to guarantee good and bad weather in any given month.
In summer most British people take their holidays because schools break up for the whole of August. The summer months have the best weather, so the gardens will be in full bloom.
March and April are the months when spring arrives and there is a good chance of fine weather, but some tourist attractions don't open until May.
In October and November autumn sets in and it often rains It's a good time for wandering around because the leaves on the trees change to all shades of brown, red and orange.
December through to February is the winter period in Great Britain. In winter it's rather cold and often rains.
