11. It Always Rained

Like, all the time. You have never been colder in your entire life than you were on D.O.E expeditions, not because of your lack of layers, but because British weather sucks. Even when it did finish raining, your clothes were so damp and heavy that you spent your days walking in misery and no matter how many Disney songs you sung, they never made you truly happy. When the Sun did eventually pay a visit, you were left with sunburn on your face. Great.
