r mother tried often to tell me). If there were onlyone dab of mud to be found in the whole of London, I am convinced Ishould carry it off from all competitors.
I wish I could return the affection, but I fear I never shall be ableto. I have a horror of what they call the "London particular." Ifeel miserable and muggy all through a dirty day, and it is quite arelief to pull one's clothes off and get into bed, out of the way ofit all. Everything goes wrong in wet weather. I don't know how itis, but there always seem to me to be more people,Chelsea Londyn Dziecko, and dogs, andperambulators, and cabs, and carts about in wet weather than at anyother time, and they all get in your way more, and everybody is sodisagreeable--except myself--and it does make me so wild. And then,too,Arsenal Drakt Barn, somehow I always find myself carrying more things in wet weatherthan in dry; and when you have a bag, and three parcels, and anewspaper, and it suddenly comes on to rain, you can't open yourumbrella.
Which reminds me of another phase of the weather that I can't bear,and that is April weather (so called because it always comes in May).
Poets think it very nice. As it does not know its own mind fiveminutes together, they liken it to a woman; and it is supposed to bevery charming on that account. I don't appreciate it,Nike Air Presto kengät Suomi, myself. Suchlightning-change business may be all very agreeable in a girl. It isno doubt highly delightful to have to do with a person who grins onemoment about nothing at all,Portland Trail Blazers Drakter, and snivels the next for precisely thesame cause, and who then giggles, and then sulks,Belstaff Trialmaster Jackor, and who is rude, andaffectionate, and bad-tempered, and jolly, and boisterous, and silent,and passionate, and cold, and stand-offish,Franck Ribery Drakt, and flopping, all in oneminute (mind,Philadelphia Flyers Drakter, I don't say this. It is those poets. And they aresupposed to be connoisseurs of this sort of thing); but in the weatherthe disadvantages of the system are more apparent. A woman's tears donot make one wet, but the rain does; and her coldness does not lay thefoundations of asthma and rheumatism, as the east wind is apt to. Ican prepare for and put up with a regularly bad day, but theseha'porth-of-all-sorts kind of days do not suit me. It aggravates meto see a bright blue sky above me when I am walking along wet through,and there is something so exasperating about the way the sun comes outsmiling after a drenching shower, and seems to say: "Lord love you,you don't mean to say you're wet? Well,Atletico Madrid Dres Dámské, I am surprised. Why,Fred Perry Herr, it wasonly my fun."They don't give you time to open or shut your umbrella in an EnglishApril, especially if it is an "automaton" one--the umbrella, I mean,not the April.
I bought an "automaton" once in April, and I did have a time with it!
I wanted an umbrella, and I went into a shop in the Strand and toldthem so, and they said:
"Yes, sir. What sort of an umbrella would you like?"I said I should like one that would keep the rain off, and that wouldnot allow itself to be left behind in a railway carriage.
"Try an 'automaton,'" said the shopman.
"What's an 'automaton'?" said I.
"Oh, it's a beautilinks:
