good job you were here during a good spell! Tbh that just sounds like standard lake district weather to me, you can tell when its bad when the wipers on full makes no difference and the rain is coming straight at you horizontally, none of this down rubbish, vertical rain is over rated anyway
Got to fill the lakes with something, it would just be the district if it wasn't for the rain
There were tales of sideways rain on the trip but I think that may have been in Scotland, although third day was Scotland to Lake District so could've been then. Regardless, we got rained on every day of the trip, in Bradford (shithole) we turned onto a road for 300 yards, got soaked then turned off and the rain stopped :|
