I recently listened to Rod Stewart, he sang "Ten days of rain" , from the Album
"Every beat of my heart".
Have you ever experienced such a long time of pouring rain , and could you stand it ?

I can't remember 10 days of continual rain, but at the moment in the u.k. we have unusually dry conditions, a couple of days rain would be good.

Not quite ten days of rain but here in Wales it's rained for almost a week and we've had over three inches in that time. My bar Mac and Aquo boots have hardly ever been dry in that time. Lovely!

Not ten days of constant rain... but during the beginning of the winter its not that uncommon that you can wear rainwear to work 9 days out of 10 and regretting that you didn't wear it the last day.
9 days come very close. One day the "magic" 10 days will be yours

Nowadays, rain is just in our imagination.

I think I have to move to Wales.

I'm sure it will happen some time in the future
Or I will just wear some kind of rainwear from november to end of march
Whatever you do, you do it right.
I just wanted to ask you where you live, but then I saw Sweden.
I am sure that I never had more than 2 days of rain.
I have to visit Sweden, to see for myself that 9 days are for real, and not
forget to wear my long raincoat for a long time

Just do it in the right time of the year and be prepared to get wet
I wear rubberboots and a very long raincoat,
so you're wrong if you think I'm getting wet
