A Little Bit Of Rain, Don’t Be Scared!

August 2nd, 2010 posted by admin

What is it with English people and a little bit of rain? I am from Spain and despise the rain, but even I can handle a little bit of it!

Last week I witnessed a truly bizarre happening. I was standing in town when all of a sudden the heavens opened and it rained so hard that the roofs above us sounded like a kind of steel band playing. It was as though a bomb had gone off, in a way. And I understood that, but what I did not understand was what happened next. The rain stopped but according to the reactions of people…it was still coming just as hard!

I was sheltered under the roof of a shop and the girls near me were saying:

“We can’t go yet, we don’t have umbrellas!”

Then the other said “let’s risk it!”

The first one said “no way! My hair will get ruined even if it is hardly raining!”

How silly! It was like it was raining with Hair loss medication …medication that had gone off and would in fact remove all the hair with just a few drops!

Now, I would love to say that I have never witnessed the English rain fear before but sadly that is not true. I have seen it time and time again, and I think it’s getting worse!

The answer? I am not sure. But I think that they may be issuing helmets soon so some terrified English people can go out in the rain…
