    It's total pish up here - that horrible drizzly rain that gets you wet from the bottom up !!! - what is known in the local venacular as "smirry" rain.

    They say that the eskimos have over 20 words for different types of snow, here in the wet and windy west of Scotland we have a simmilar number of ways to describe rain ............

    Pish
    Pishin
    Pishy
    Pishin doon
    Pishin hard
    Pishin doon hard
    Pishin doon effin hard
    Drizzly
    Heavy Drizzle
    Helluva heavy drizzle
    Smirry
    Helluva smirry
    Dreich
    Very dreich
    Helluva dreich
    Helluva effin dreich
    Stair rods
    Straight doon rain
    Horizontal rain
    and not forgeting - ****it stay in bed rain.
    2011 Triumph Tiger 800 - "Black Pussy" - MMMM Nice !!!
    2000 Suzuki DRZ400S - "Ol' Yella" - very bright
    2011 Peugeot V-Clic 50cc - "Scoot" - It's my wife's, an enjoyable ride.
