Wow - same for me. NZ weather is probably the closest I have lived in vs england. Going from NZ to Melbourne was very strange as the light/heat there is much more intense.
Also as others have said it was probably a hell of alot worse then, they would of been burning alot of coal and that lets out black smoke/smog because at that time it was not filterd (correct me if I am wrong). That stuff doesnt just vanish, it gets blown/spread around. When I lived in singapore some days I wouldnt go outside because the city was so chocked with smoke from the forests being burnt in Malaysia and Indonesia (turned into cropland), you couldnt see more than a few hundred feet. Of course thats a different scale, but thats also hundreds of miles of sea and islands in between.
