See, all that stuff about London being the rainiest city is total bollocks
- Do people say that? I've never heard that about London. Manchester though...
  
  I'm shocked that Manchester isn't bluer
  
  Manchester’s rep for rain is way overstated - even “Rain Bar” is so called because the building was an umbrella factory. It’s actually all in the lee of the hills and mountains, as you’d expect.
