Back to the cold and wet
... was wet with giant puddles and some accesses blocked. It looked as though it would be a pleasant place to visit on a warm sunny day, but on a cold, wet, windy one it was dreary.

Many of the traders had closed, presumably because of the small lakes that had formed in from N t of their ...
