After months of weeks of organisation the day for your big move finally dawns and the removalists truck is heading down the street to your gate. You’d be delighted except for one thing. The rain is belting down with evil intensity, bent on destroying your well-laid plans for getting all your worldly goods onto – or off – the truck in good time. So what do you do?
