Scottish words – drookit

Drookit is what we were today. We visited my sister and it started to rain during the drive back home. It was absolutely torrential, just about the heaviest rain that I have ever seen. It was very windy too so I think we must have been getting the tail end of a hurricane, which happens quite often in this area.

In the 5 second dash from the car into the house we were absolutely soaked, drowned, or as we say in Scotland – drookit.
