yes well paris has never been known for it's good weather (it's a lucky thing it has other qualities to recommend it...), but the climate has seemed to degenerate seriously in the past few years. it seems now we have only 2 choices, for about 90% of the year : cold overcast rainy weather (most common by far) interspersed with one or two week stretches of unrelenting, suffocating heat (nature's way of limiting over-population, apparently). this year, we have about a week and a half of absolutely brilliant weather in early may, like a perfect month of july, then the temperature plummetted and i haven't seen a speck of blue sky in a month. today there's actually a bit of sun, it would seem, but of course i have to stay inside and get some work done (which reminds me i should get the hell out of this forum...). i swear, if we go from 15° (far too cold) to 35° (too hot !!) with no transition whatsoever, as has become the norm lately, i think i'll go drown myself.
