Hair dryer

I got soaked on the way to the station today. My coat's waterproofing seems to have worn off so I had a miserable hour drying out on the train. My shirt has a big water stain on it that looks like I've been sleeping in the gutter.

Wouldn't it be great if the stations had giant, walk in hot air dryers? I've seen them at theme parks near the water rides, £1 for 3 mins drying time.

Not very eco friendly though.

Speaking of which, the water companies have slapped another hosepipe ban down this summer. Apparently the current spate of rain doesn't soak through to the aquifers underground but just runs of the baked-solid earth into the rivers.

So why not put gutters and drain-pipes on the rivers eh? Yeah, I know I'm a f**kwit.
