Well I went out in horizontal heavy snow this afternoon to walk the dog
and all I was wearing was a non-waterproof top and ordinary trousers. Just
shook the snow off when I got home and my coat/trousers were practically
dry. No gloves or hat as it wasn't cold enough at circa 1C or thereabouts.
But I did have my hood up so I could see facing into the snow. Perhaps the
snow was very wet at Dunkeswell?

You are totally bonkers.

The dog had to be walked John. Mind you she did screw up here eyes walking
straight into the snow. But yes it was fun! It's safe too being less than
half a mile from home. That was also far more enjoyable than horizontal rain
that *does* require good waterproofs, which I have as they are essential for
living on Dartmoor.
