Hello
everybody,
Can someone
help me with the following sentence? It�s correct if I say:
Rain let me
down or Rain brings
me down
Or do you know
an idiom or expression related to sadness? I want to say that rain makes me
sad.
Something
else, is the expression �let your hair down� still used? Or it�s old
fashion.
Thanks in
advanced

�Rain gets me down �, is better. �Let down � means to fail to deliver on a promise.
�Let your hair down � is still used.
