First, it's consistently "Arthur" in my edition of THS (Bodley Head) unless I've missed something.

Secondly, I've always found "loving weather" a bit curious. One wouldn't say that one loved all states of health. Appreciating weather of any kind is, I suppose, intended to be contrasted with the undiscriminating loss of judgement which is imposed by the Objective Room (it comes later).

Heh I LOVED the idea of a picnic in a car, on a foggy Autumn day :) It's the sort of thing I would totally enjoy. I keep meaning to host a New Year's BBQ party if I could a) buy a BBQ at this time of year and b) persuade anyone to drag themselves away from their fireplaces to come. I think that Lewis and I were on the same page on this one :)

I would distinguish between liking some particular examples of weather, and liking "weather". And I would have supposed that CSL would make this (overfine?) distinction between the general and particular; but perhaps not.
