Hi, grrrrrr grrrr; well your bear was enjoying a very relaxing dream about HONEY in the very nice grounds of Trinity college when that storm hit! It's not nice getting drenched when you have a built in fur coat. It makes it very difficult to escape the effects of the rain.
Let me tell you, I got wet, very very wet, you can see me below drying myself in front of a very nice warm gas heater.
At least my back is toasty warm. So much for gardens and nice inviting seats, disaster inviting seats more like it. Your bear is very relieved that he wasn't in the middle of consuming a pot of HONEY at the time the storm hit! If only your bear had used Internet Explorer to check the weather in the internet, it might have been a different story.
Your bear is now well and truly dry and hungry! Some of that nice food they serve in the colleges would just hit the spot.
