I was there for about a year and a half, and there was about 1-2 weeks that were really nice, meaning sunny and warm. I just went there for a visit about a month ago, and I was surprised that it was again sunny and warm for the first few days. Then I went to Leeds and it wasn't so good anymore, and overcast by the time I got back to London.
The country side can be beautiful, though, and the women are great.

You're simply wrong about the food as Sarah pointed out. It's just a matter of taking the time to look and explore. There's a HUGE range of very good quality food available from every part of the globe often at reasonable prices. Again it's a matter of looking. If you find yourself in London again spend a little more time finding good places to eat as there's plenty. If you're stuck read a food guide ot two.
And yes to the weather in Leeds. I really can't understand why people say the London weather is bad because to be honest it isn't. Again the only people who have any justification for bitching are people who like living in temps of 90+ and sweating all day. Personally I'd find weather like that horrible. However, travel to some places up North and dry days really are the exception
