I can’t remember exactly what I said but whilst driving in Hungary one time I slagged of God in a conversation I was having with my mate  , next thing the heavens opened and we quite literally aqua planned across the motor way , spun around a few times  and then came to a stop somehow without hitting anything 

i swear my mate converted there and then ... but as it was the road to Budapest rather than Damascus I still need a bit more convincing :)

I was driving in it. I've never had to pull over before because the wipers literally couldn't handle the amount of rain. Until today.

Sounds like some of the storms we get in Sydney. Despite its reputation London has about half the annual rainfall of Sydney. It might not rain as often there but when it does it can be a deluge. You can see it in the road infrastructure, gutters in the UK are very low and drains are much smaller than Sydney because they were never envisioned to have to cope with subtropical/tropical downpours.

I had to walk from the office to New Street. Only a couple of minutes walk. I was drenched within a few steps. Literally drenched. Then the hail started like bullets and the wind whipped it up even more. I got to New Street and was literally completely bedraggled. Ridiculous.

I've only ever seen rain like it once before, years back driving home from Cornwall where suddenly the heavens opened and the motorway turned into a river with visibility horrendous.

But walking in it. **** hell.

I was walking along Colmore Row when it happened. By the time I managed to get my brolly up I was wet through from head to toe. A couple of seconds later my brolly was no more.  Never seen anything like that before.

unless you are Mary Poppins or John Steed you shouldn’t be carrying an umbrella

I think this is a minority view. I let the trainers comment regarding Avril Lavigne slide as you were probably right but brollies, are you 10? Brollies are a completely normal thing to carry especially if you have a commute that involves walking to the train station.

Umbrellas, see B***les, Q***n and lettuce

I have invested to much money in my brolly to be swayed by the court of opinion. I keep it safely locked in the boot of my car where it remains until the day my commute changes from car to train.

I know I’ve detailed my loathing for them on here in the past but I almost had a punch up this morning because of one. The usual oblivious bloke gets on the tube, rain cascading down his recently closed umbrella all over my lap. I somewhat forcibly moved it away at which point he screamed “what you doing, you prick?”  Me and the three other people he’d soaked all showed our displeasure, he got narky then someone else shouted at him to watch what he was doing. He then stood menacingly over me until the next stop before he got off. Oh how we laughed.

Clearly I didn’t almost get in a fight.

Should have took it off the word removed and bent it over your knee.

Or his head.

I considered it as an option but I'd have probably lost my seat so decided it wasn't worth it.

Or you could have made a video for the gay amateur section on Porn Hub

They've recently made a big issue out of consent permissions. The "star" of the film would be entitled to residuals. More hassle than its worth these days.
