Soaking

The weather in the UK has been awful. There have been floods all over Northern England & the weather down here has been exceedingly wet. On Sat I had to go to the hair dressers - a three monthly chore I loath. I get my hair highlighted to cover up a few streaks of grey and the process takes a good few hours and costs > £100. The only bonus is that I ask the hairdresser to make my unruly curly hair straight which pleases my partner who otherwise doesn't get to have a girlfriend with lovely straight hair. Anyhow, after being in the hairdressers from 14:45 - 18:00 I finally left. Naturally it was pouring down, but hey, it's OK I've got my umbrella... But a car roared past me, through a puddle, and absolutely soaked me from head to foot. I'm sure it was deliberate. My hair was instantly curly again and I was covered in filthy water. When I got home putting on my homemade socks was the only thing that could comfort me. I do love my socks.
