I live in a small town in Belgium and we have a saying that says: "there's no bad weather, only bad clothing". Granted, the weather here is mild. Doesn't get too cold, not too hot (except for this week). We do get a lot of rain though, but nothing that a pair of rain trousers and coat can't handle ;)
