We were struck by a huge storm earlier this week, the clouds
sat low and heavy in the sky – such monstrously dark things, almost purple,
writhing in the muggy air, threatening.
Then, all at once they burst, a torrential downpouring of sweet,
refreshing water. The sky lit up with
lightning and the streets were quickly submerged. Obviously, I had to go for a walk. The only looney bastard struggling down the
gushing pavements, clutching his little umbrella tight against the angry wind,
grinning maniacally at the novelty of it all.
