Anyone interested in Meet ups on wet rainy days just to go walkies in the rain? obviously they will be short-ish notice ones.
i often go for walks in the rain, visit a few fountains or ponds, also meet ups at london pubs on the thames where the high tides flood the beer gardens or streets around the pub. any excuse to get wet really
i also have been doing quite a bit of wildlife and nature photography in the last two years and that has given plenty of opportunities to get wet or muddy while doing something "normal".
anyone interested in these types of days out around London?
Early one recent morning, at first light, we had very heavy dark clouds overhead. It felt unusually mild, even warm. Light drizzle started to fall. I decided to change for a walk. There was a strong breeze blowing. For the first ten minutes outside, the light rain made me only a little damp. Disappointing. A view towards the horizon, however, looking in the direction that the wind was coming from, showed that everything was obscured by a grey curtain sweeping down from the clouds. The rain became steadier before gusts of wind carried a series of splatters against my back. I felt my light rain top wet against me as rainwater bounced all around and the footpath became awash. Now it was absolutely pouring. I carried on for ten minutes, suddenly enjoying this walk so much.I Numerous joggers, walkers, and cyclists passed. I turned around, to feel the rain battering into my face and drenching me to the skin. Lovely!
