Funnily enough, I think you'd miss the rain (yes, even when it's like this!). I didn't like the landscape at all - it's almost desert, with no standing water, no streams or rivers. There are very few insects and I can't imagine there'd be many wild mammals about either.
This blog charts the fortunes of water voles in and around the Whitchurch area, North Shropshire. Water voles are one of the UK's most threatened mammals, extinct in many counties, and so it's vital they receive as much monitoring and protection as there is going. Here in Whitchurch we're lucky enough to have them right in the middle of town - how cool is that?

Welcome back, looks like you had a better time than our rain soaked week in Wales.
Nice lizard picture.

The lizards were terrific fun, though.
