MY RAINCOAT




 


am sitting here at home, waiting for the rain to ease so I can make a geriatric dash up the road to the club I try to go to every week. It’s called Café Square 1. Speed will be of the essence if I want to arrive remotely dry.

I am just waiting for the raindrops, splashing in a puddle visible from my window, to stop falling, or become light to minimal, before making my run.

I have a raincoat which is very efficient at keeping out the rain and cold, but its hood has the annoying habit of dropping over your eyes, leaving you sightless until you push it back up.

Unfortunately, it was not designed to stay on my head, despite all my attempts to stop it. It is very much a dry weather coat. I have made the decision now to buy a waterproof hat.

The rain has eased. I am off.
