Great British
October 1st, 2006
Today I experienced spectacular (Great) British weather. In fact, it felt monumental. Driving rain, thunder and lightning over head. During the 8 mile cycle home I was concerned about getting trench foot.
But perhaps more surprising than rain in the UK was that during this intense rainy spell I was offered a lift by two separate (and I assume completely independent) drivers.
Being (Great) British, I stubbornly (but politely [or as politely as one can when cycling flat out in driving rain]) declined. Besides, I didn’t want to mess up their car interiors.
