1)The puddles- why if you are well equipped with Wellies one may say? It's not the splash-friendly, let's play type of puddles that I hate. It's the 5 drops of water ones due to which I managed to get a bruise today albeit wearing super non-slip footwear
2) Worms- absolutely disgusting with a capital D. Just imagine walking or should I say, stunt-walking through various puddles and mud mounds only to catch a few slimy, muddy, moist worms sliding over your shoes [bleurgh]
3)Umbrella Aikido- All is well while walking on on one of the stretchy boulevards but once you get into the narrow. winding, cobblestone streets of the old town, that's where the challenge begins. Having to close your umbrella every two steps so you wouldn't have someone's eye out while simultaneously watching out that the same doesn't happen to you does not make the journey pleasant, take my word for it!
4)General tetchiness- people say Spaniards are tetchy with a short fuse and all that jazz. Not true! However. the same statemnt with a "when pouring with rain" becomes true in an instant! People honking at each other for no reason, nearly punching each others in the face over parking spaces, screaming at the students in their class for no pasrtiualr reason :-( (the last one affects me lol)
5) Dripping umbrellas with the TOTAL absence of 'Wet Floor' signs. I think this one speaks for itself!
