At best we tolerate them. When did you last visit during the steam age?
Although admittedly it seems like some of the carriages they use haven't been replace/refurbished since then.
Does England have strange bugs that leave necrotized wounds?

I'm not really sure. I believe we'd have to leave such matters to the People of England. All one of them.

They must be using some sort of English spider magic, because we all know, the climate does not change. Ever.

As a Englishman of 25yrs I have never heard of deadly insects who necro flesh or have or know anyone at 4pm.

That's a tad unfair I can't control the date of which I was born [emoji22]. Now my tea tastes salty from my tears, prehaps some avocado toast will cheer me up [emoji12]

I love all the various Britons words for Weather, they are so dank and mawky - Mizzling, Tippling, Luttering, Plothering, Pelting. Siling down like cats and dogs
I’ve never heard any of those except pelting it down like cats & dogs. And I’m pretty sure I’ve never heard anybody say that out loud!

yeah like Wuthering, I'd suspect most of them are northern dialect terms and now preserved only in literature and parody
I do know that Plothering comes from the Midlands, and my Prestonian grandfather used Mawky
