Do you mind walking in the rain without an umbrella?

A very happy moment I remember from my childhood was during a warm summer rain.

I was elated to lay out on the warm driveway and let the warm rain fall on me. It was pure bliss. Must have looked a bit odd though.

I don't mind getting wet in the rain, unless I have to be somewhere and looking presentable.

I like the sound of the rain, especially at night.

Try walking through a downpour it's really awful even umbrellas don't work I had to walk through a downpour a few weeks ago with my five year old neice it was scary for me and her as well I still have nightmares about it.

I ware rain gear or gortex whenever im out in the rain and have not owned an umbrella in almost 20 years.

I mind it, mostly because it seems to occur mostly on my way to work. And It seems to get cloudy and rainy within minutes even after the lying weatherman predicted sunny skies...
Once in a while, though, i like to run outside in the rain--- especially in the hot summer. Makes me feel like a kid. Then i don't mind it.

Who cares? I walk in the rain with sandals on. At least it's more comfortable than getting water on your socks in your shoes. If I had an umbrella, I'd use it, but if there wasn't one, I wouldn't complain.

Depends on the rain...

While I can stand drizzle, I don't like walking in showers.

Argh! Voted Yes when I meant to hit No.

I don't mind at all: it's only water.

I love the sound of a gentle rain on an umbrella. I also like going to sleep to the sound of rain. As for getting wet, if its warm out, I don't mind it.

I prefer to walk in the rain with a umbrella so that I don't get wet.

There are times that I don't walk in the rain with a umbrella, that's when it's only raining very lightly or just simply drizzling.

I've lived in the wet, rainy, miserable UK for 2 years now and still don't own an umbrella!!

No, I don't mind walking in the rain. I just walk a little faster. I think of all the inclement weather Roger Bannister must have had to walk and run through on the way to his sub four minute mile.

I think umbrellas can be a pain in the neck to use.

I guess I'm in the minority here. I know it is just water, and my body will dry off easily enough, but I don't like having wet clothes. Yes, a light rain for a short time doesn't get me all that wet, but....

I collect umbrellas! I've got a whole bunch of them and I get excited when it rains and I can use one! So, I also get particularly annoyed when I get caught in the rain without an umbrella, because I missed an opportunity. I just think of all those poor umbrellas sitting in my closet.

They are really cumbersome to use, however, when one has other things to carry, or getting in or out of a car.
