Could you show me the way to the garden party?

I have discovered, through the wonders of English as a foreign language text books, that us Brits really are renouned for talking about the weather and being polite, so here I go; I'll stick to the cultural stereotypes...
It's snowing AGAIN! It's minus something AGAIN! People keep telling me that it's beautiful here in the summer, that they get a very continental climate.... It's a LIE! It's never going to stop snowing, and just when you think it's gone... it comes back. I like the snow (really I do) I'm not complaining. Oh, ok I am complaining. However, I think it is only my duty to adhere to the preconcieved notions of Britishness and thus avoid any confusion for the Russians.
