But it just wouldn't sound right if Sacha Distel had sung:
"Tonnes of rain keep falling on my head"

So, taking the average size for a head, if M.Distel had stood outside
for ten minutes in a rain shower that was giving say 5 mms of rain
per hour, how many kgs would have fallen on his head during that
time?

Hi, Jack,

When Paul Newman had raindrops falling on his head in Butch Cassidy
and the Sundance Kid (sung by BJ Thomas - a far superior version to
Sacha's imho), he was riding around on a bicycle. How would that
affect the amount falling on his head? He was riding in a circle at
just above walking pace, had a brimmed cowboy hat on and had Katharine
Rodd on his knee. It was also in 1969, before AGW(;0)

Raindrops fell on my head last night when I was getting the coal in
btw
15.5mm at 09Z this morning (exactly the same as Saturday 09Z reading)
