Living in a city that is famous for the rain coming sideways I pretty much think I can handle it all. Until today. I have never gotten so soaked in my life, right into the bone.
Thank God for my GoreTex rain jacket otherwise I would probably have looked like I had taken a shower with my clothes on. Now I only looked like someone who had been on an open tour bus for an hour in the pouring rain.
About to have lunch with Jonny, an old consultant now friend, I was in a bit of pickle so to say. So what to do?! I ran into Marks & Spencer and bought the cheapest pair of trousers I could find. £12 later and all dried up I was on the go again.
The sun managed to get through the clouds for a while when I walked up to Edinburgh Castle after lunch, but after then it started to pour again. Not wanting to buy another pair of trousers I hid out in a coffee shop before exploring Edinburgh some more. A city of spectacular views and amazing history. But to be honest, could it please stop raining. At least until I go home.
