So, obviously, when I was complaining about the heat, what I actually meant was, "Please tip it down for the entire period that I venture outside today and for extra special points make sure that I notice the clouds and still forget to take my umbrella and that I've just washed my hair."

Boooooo! I think that means you deserve some chocolate.

I'm looking outside sadly, realising that I have no choice but to venture into town in this. I will, however, take an umbrella!

But it's water! Cool water! Even if not scented with tea tree oil!

Thinking about it, I walked into Cambridge from your house without an umbrella once, and it was only when I caught sight of myself in a mirror some hours later that I realised quite what a mess my hair was. I mean, I knew it was messy, but not the precise horror of messiness. So maybe this umbrella-forgetting-hair-messing thing is just an effect of Being In Your House.

I think it definitely means I deserve some chocolate. Hope you don't get wet later, it's quite fresh now.

Cool, polluted water, tho'.

This would explain A Great Deal About My Life.

Sounds familiar...

(I hate the weather here, too...)

Thanks - I think I'm going to make a run for it now - it's looking ok at the moment. I'm taking an umbrella, though...

At least it's cooler now, even if I'm a bit damper :-)

Evil weather! *shakes fists along with you* This is why I always bring an umbrella with me in my backpack, rain or shine. It's not likely that my observational skills are going to kick in anytime soon, even when there ominous-looking clouds in the sky.

I usually don't bother with a handbag or backpack (near impossible tho' it is to find women's jackets with decent pockets).

Hmm. What about wearing something with a hood? Then if it's not raining and anyone asks, you can just pull the hood over your head and pretend to be a Sith Lord! :D

Can you tell that I'm out of ideas? ;)

Heehee. I love your icon!

And hm. I wasn't aware that being an evil Sith Lord bent on the domination of the entire universe was against the law. ;)

I have lived in Melbourne long enough that a very small portable umbrella is a permanent fixture of my backback.

Mine too in Auckland. Not that it works in strong winds like last week's.

Thanks! Courtesy of the Sith Lord herself.

Only if you are wearing a "hoodie". (Some shopping centres in the U.K. have banned hooded tops because they are threatening. I doubt whether they've banned selling them though).

Well, it just goes to show that you should never, ever leave the house. Just dig escape tunnels instead.

I wore sandals, and had a jacket and umbrella with me today, thereby ensuring that the weather would be both hot and wet. It was. I was damp, sweaty, tired and had dirty feet when I got home. Now if I only I could lose 2 1/2 decades, a few stones, acquire a cockney accent, and travel in time, I'd be a perfect little urchin, in a Victorian novel where I get knocked down by a hansom cab in the first thirty pages.

*waves puny fists at heavens*

I had no problems whatsoever visualising this. Can't think why. ;-)

Hehehe. Not sure if that'll be a problem for Sith lords, though.

"These are not the hoodies you're looking for."
