A childhood belief about weather

THE BIG CLOUD
When I was a child of about 8, every afternoon during the Easter holidays I used to go the river bed to play with my brothers and sisters, my mum, my uncle and my cousins. One day I saw a single large, white cloud in the sky and suddenly it started to rain. I had a brilliant idea, ' Let's run to the end of the cloud so it will stop raining!', and my brothers and cousins started to run; but my uncle shouted, 'What are you doing? The end could be in the next town!' We stopped; we could never run that far!
