Bognor has always meant to me the quintessential English sea

Summary

This quote suggests that the town of Bognor represents a traditional English seaside experience. The mention of rain alludes to the expectation of unpredictable and less-than-ideal weather conditions typically associated with the coastal British towns.

It highlights the enduring appeal of traditional seaside experiences in the face of changing global climates.
