this is so true. When the weather's foul I get fed up standing out there for just half an hour and am very glad to scuttle back in to the warm and dry. I think your dedication to the cause has been outstanding.To fully appreciate what traveling accross Bristol to stand in the wind and the rain for a couple of hours every day one has to do it. It's not nip out the back to see if the chickens are okay and scuttle back indoors in the warm and dry. I'm often sitting on the bus with my hands under my thighs trying to get them warm enough to roll a smoke while my overalls gently steam around me.
The image of you steaming gently on the bus is quite comic though
