Dearest H,
We’re getting well into winter now. Just a few short months ago we were desperate for rain; now I find myself longing for a couple of days without any. Don’t get me wrong, rain is brilliant, magical even, and our recently planted garden will be the better for it, but I have jobs to do outside and prefer not having to don waterproof clothing to get them done. I suppose that makes me rather selfish; or a bit of a wimp. Forget it then, let’s revel in the rainfall while we have it!
Love,
Dad
