My younger brother (a maths teacher) emigrated to NZ in 2001, starting
off in Winter in Dunedin. He said he immediately knew the meaning of the
phrase "Hell Freezes Over". He attended a rugby test match between NZ &
SA at "The House of Pain" wearing his polar outfit only to find the
locals were wearing T-shirts! They soon moved to Whangerai, NI, where
the weather is more like Cape Town.

It's amazing how people acclimatize. I love the mid 30's. I tend to wear
a jersey below 30. Sub 20 I find freezing. My daughter in Farnham is
complaining too.
Ideal for me is anywhere between 18 to 25 tops.
And I grew up in the SF bay area!
The truth is, British weather changes fairly rapidly on the whole. We rarely
get more than a week or two of the same thing. The Atlantic has a huge
influence here and the jetstream in particular. From midweek next week we'll
have our mild westerlies again and temps this time of year will be back to
normal for us, about 23 or so. Always hotter in London, so say 25 there.
Lik you say, it's what you're used to :-)
