No changes to equipment no dramatic change in weather so why suddenly has it got better?

I think you will find that the cold, damp weather in January and February cannot be compared to the relatively warm, dry weather in May/June. Other than that previous comment on possible work on the line connections by BT may have something to do with it?

Wish I lived where you do! But it's a valid point, when the weather is decent, any potential dampness causing poorer sync speeds will have dried out potentially improving the speeds of the connection.

Being "typically english" I suppose any "unknown" is blamed on the weather !

That's why I was careful to use "potentially"
Your problem obviously wasn't attributed to the weather. But it is possible for underground cabling to be affected by periods of wet weather, to be subsequently resolved when the cabling dries out.
We can't all live in the sunny south you know

On a decent quality line, weather will have little effect.
On a marginal quality line the weather can have drastic effects. In the case where there may be an exposed joint in the cabling, damp weather can certainly exacerbate an existing problem. Also, a lot of telephone lines are run in underground conduits. If these are prone to leaking then you can end up with a completely submerged line. While this won't cause any problems with a correctly insulated line, older lines which may be suffering from perished insulation can certainly start to see problems!

OR... the lines around here are in "excellent" condition, and cannot be improved with a bit of sunshine....
Just a point to note....
If rain can penetrate the ground to a depths of 18" and cause cables to be "damp", how far does sunshine penetrate (?) and how long does it take for that sunshine to dry them out again?

You got it!

It's not the water per se, but the condition of the insulation. If the insulation is good then it is impervious to dampness and you'll see no difference in its performance. On the other hand, if it is like mine . . .

My downstream speeds have also been increasing since Christmas and have now stablised to 6976/448. I have not done any improvements to explain this.
The plots of ADSL show Channel show an across the board inprovement in bit capacity per channel.

With regard to your increase in sync speeds, maybe OpenReach have improved some cabling on route, or local noise factors have reduced for some reason.
