My New Rain Boots

I live in the northern part of England. THe best way to describe the weather here is 'dismal'. My first three days here were cheery. It was sunny and nice. It was a lie. After those three moments of jolly good weather, we got rain. You know why the landscape is so nice here? It is because it is well irrigated- by all of the rain!

One day, I walked to the shopping center to buy some toilet bowl cleaner, and my shoes ended up soaking wet because of all the rain. My feet were cold and gross. I didn't even feel like buying cleaning supplies until I saw a sign for an awesome rain boot deal. They were cute and cheap, but alas, one would need to buy two to get the awesome deal.

I sadly walk to the cheap cleaning supply store when I saw... my roommate! She was out and about by herself, and her feet were gross too! The two of use got the two pair of boots for 30 pound deal. Pictured below are our boots as well as the boots of our other roommate.
By the time we walked out of the shopping center, the rain had stopped. The lack of rain did not stop us from wearing out new boots home. We showed them off gladly and even wore then around the house for a while. Then we put them neatly in a row, and they have been there ever since.

No seriously internet, we never wore the boots again. This had to be two weeks ago, and it has not rained once during those days. Sure it rains at night just to keep the sky cloudy and the day grey, but there is no longer a need to wear rain boots when we go out.
