"Maybe its because I’m Scottish particularly from the west coast of this wonderful country that I paint a lot of scenes with umbrellas in them.

We used to say that the clouds that coming over from the Atlantic would reached the Isle of Arran and 'Goat Fell' (the largest mountain on the island), and would 'tear the arse' out the clouds and drop its contents on ud folks in every town on the west coast.

My mad uncle would always say that, “summer was his favourite day of the year”.

On the plus side, all that water goes on to make some of the finest whisky on the planet.

So it can't be all bad - and nothing beats looking at a landscape when the sun comes out just after a heavy downpour, the atmosphere it creates is breathtaking.

What I also remember about where I hail from is how friendly everyone is.

People go out of their way to say hello or to make sure you're alright!

And if you were ever in need on a rainy day of an an umbrella - even if you were on a bike - it would be made available to you."
