I too think the UK's climate will become increasingly cool and dank,.

I expect in another 30 years (even though I'll be dead by then) we'll have something like a murky, wet, mild climate in winter and a warm, relatively dry climate in summer, albeit with more in the way of convective rain than we have now. Temperatures almost certainly won't be lower than they are now!
Northern England north may just cling onto what we're currently seeing down here in Kent - but as an article on the Beeb said a couple of months back, Edinburgh and Cumbria now have the same amount of frost that Kent and Sussex did 50 years ago. That trend isn't likely to reverse!
EDIT: I also expect 40 to be reached at least as often as 35 is now, and for most summers to reach 35 somewhere in the south/Midlands. As ever, the "area under the curve" effect means this will have a much bigger effect than the numbers suggest!
