Damp

– There you go: you make a point of mentioning how warm and summery the weather has been and then suddenly it all changes.
– It did get a bit wild this morning: wintry gales upending some of my flower pots. But it'll probably pass soon enough.
– I had to jump ahead in my outdoor wardrobe.
– Sorry?
– I had still been wearing my lightweight summer jacket, and was looking forward to moving on to a more substantial version better suited to the mild autumnal chill. But instead I had to get out my waterproof early winter coat.
– You seem very organised.
– No more than the next man–
– Probably a little more than the next man...
– It is just common sense to update your outer wear according to the weather.
– I suppose so.
– It is almost as if you don't think this is important.
– Do you have a late winter coat in addition to the early winter coat?
– Of course. Don't you?
