Bournemouth: the Oceanarium in heavy rain
Bournemouth: the Oceanarium in heavy rain
Looking across the Pier Approach towards the Oceanarium from the necessary shelter of one of the pier canopies in extremely wet weather. The larger blobs of water are spilling from the sloping roof but the teeming rain can also be seen in the picture. The torrential rain had persisted all morning but would ease after lunchtime, when this picture was taken.

I was so wet that I had to go home and change before returning to work - even my wallet and my underwear were soaked!
