    Temperature on the side of any building is such a flex

    Never see that in the UK because we just need to always assume it’ll rain and maybe go a little over room temperature if we’re lucky

    Except that one week a year where the immense cost of adding AC to our Victorian houses becomes worryingly appealing

      You guys have clock towers with tiny clocks on the top instead.

        Well how else will we know when it’s time for breakfast, second breakfast, elevenses, brunch, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, supper or midnight snack time?

      I’ve seen it a few times in the UK, there’s an ex CPC building in Preston that shows the temperature.

      I’m in the UK and my local pharmacy has one! It’s fun to guess what it will be as I’m going past.
