    Well, rains have started in India, but not in the real sense.Pre monsoon rain showers are likely to hit Mumbai, India in another weeks time.What I want to know is that in such a situation will you use an umbrella or a raincourt?
    In Gulf countries, umbrella are hardly used.What is your choice and mention your country so that I can compare your opinion accordingly.

    It hardly rains in my city (only 4-5 times in a year) and whenever it rains, its party time for us. We all friends play cricket in rain with tennis ball or football. And we do not carry any umbrella :D

    Oh and btw, I'm from Karachi, Pakistan :)

    I go out in car and hardly step out. Even if I step out I love rainy season. So I don't like keeping umbrellas in my car. Moreover it also spoils the seats when I put the wet umbrellas on it. :(

    I bring an umbrella everyday, rainy season or not. :)
    I have important things (documents/discs/e-devices) that must always be kept dry.

    This June is the rainy season here. I bring my umbrella whenever I go out because it rains suddenly.

    Still Feeling thirsty over here. Just a 150 KMs difference makes so much difference when we talk about the weather.
