What
should I wear? (continued)
- Against the rain. If you don't mind your legs getting wet, a plastic mac with hood will keep your upper body dry, except on a very wet day. If you want to keep dry all over in all weathers, you'll need a good quality rainproof (as opposed to showerproof) coat with hood (or coat and hat), waterproof trousers and good walking boots, but all of that will set you back quite a bit, so it's probably not worth making the investment unless you intend to walk regularly. Two other tips: (1) if you take anything such as a camera that needs to be kept dry, wrap it inside a plastic bag before putting it in your bag or rucksack; (2) jeans are not a good idea, as once wet they take ages to dry out. - Against the sun. On a fine day you'll be out in the sun for hours and could get badly burnt if you don't cover up. Wear a long-sleeved shirt with a collar, plus a cap, and take your sunblock cream. - On your legs. No matter how lovely the weather and however tempted you may be to wear shorts, just reflect that long trousers do have the merit of protecting your gorgeous legs from those nasty nettles! |
In the countryside ALWAYS KEEP TO THE FOOTPATH |
