Great article, and mirrors exactly how I feel when setting off on a cold dark wet evening, although you did forget to mention the final moments that crown the experience:
– arriving back into the house and dripping all over the floor, while other half looks on in consternation
- trying to remove clothes that cling to the body like a slice of pickle clings to a MacDonalds ceiling
- Standing under a hot shower for 15 minutes, and feeling life return to your extremities
- Putting on a dressing gown long before bed-time, because you know your hard work is done, and armageddon wouldn’t drag you back outside.
