Fortunately we didn't actually need them as the weather stayed dry!

It certainly is, Mike - I wouldn't do it to save my life! However, I have been told that it's alright just as long as you keep the umbrella upside down whilst it is open.
I wouldn't want to be in Derek's boots for a while to come!

The old tale is that you must never put the umbrella up over your head in the house. Sideways or upside down is ok . We will (and lots of others that we know) will leave a wet umbrella up and on its side by the back kitchen door to dry out.

I really do not know, Derek, but you'd best get the bad luck over and done with before I come to visit!!

Not me, Derek! My wet umbrellas stay in the garage (!) until dry or under cover outside the back door. Inside the house? No way!
