Splosh
Ye gods. I stepped out of the office to walk to Tesco and buy lunch, protected by a small umbrella which seemed more than adequate to the light spotting rain.
I had gone about three hundred metres when the heavens opened to such an astonishing extent that I immediately declared defeat and turned back. In the course of returning those 300 metres I became almost entirely soaked from the elbows down.
I think I shall stay indoors for the rest of lunchtime and eat my emergency food. And drip.
