In praise of good waterproofs

I’ve just come in from a lovely, soggy walk around the woods with
Holly. The rain was pouring and we had the place completely to ourselves.

I guess the old saying is true- “there’s no such thing as bad weather,
only unsuitable clothing”! I have a very nice two-piece rain suit that
I got on sale from a hunting web site (it appropriately says “MAD DOG
Clothing” on it) and some fabulous rainboots that have rubber feet and
neoprene uppers (the stuff they make wetsuits out of), and along with
my Tilley hat they kept me totally dry and able to enjoy an hour with
a very happy and wet dog!
