Lulu, I got a fab one in Primarni, but I think I read somewhere on here that they are not liked.

Muji do a great, but not very pretty long rubber raincoat with hood (detachable) Its so long you can cut it down to your chosen length, and the sleeves are cutable too. I'll try and find a link.

only a tenner, 100% waterproof and packs away dead small. I had one , its good

[MrsBadger]

buy one without a hood (Land's End often good) and a £19 Boden rainhat

[lulumama]

thank you all!!

i think if i had made a bit more effort, i could have found it without stamping my feet, but am still cross and cold from going out this morning with no decent coat.

[Fimbo]

There is this. But it is pretty bogging.

[lulumama]

now, mrsb, i do like the rain hat, and i have been wearing a hat.. but not a waterproof one.. is the hat comfy? or does it make your head all sweaty

[MrsBadger]

NB that M&S one won't be waterproof

[lulumama]

thanks fimbo ! i think

[lulumama]

showerproof, mrsb?

[Fimbo]

ha!

[lulumama]

i was feeling bad enough, you know.. have some pity!

right, boden hat.. which colour? the brown one is nice...

but i really want a coat ! my head will be dry, what about the rest of me!

[NappiesGalore]

[Fimbo]

it is slightly less bad..

but i think it is so massively reduced as they have 20 000 left in the warehouse!

thanks for trying..

[lulumama]

i know pruners, it is ridicolous.. why are there wool coats with no hoods everywhere in this sodding weather..

anyway, how are you?

[Fimbo]

It made you smile though!

Seriously I think North Face do a full length thing but can't seem to find it on line.

Try TK Maxx sometimes they have one offs.

[lulumama]

it did, fimbo, thank you !

tk maxx a good idea!

[WilfSell]

what is squillions?

I did a thread just this week in which a landsend stadium squall won , in close second a northface one. both over 100 quid though. but think of it as an investment

[NappiesGalore]

oh lulu, ive been... namechganging lots... figuritively speaking up my own arse or perhaps on the planet zog... (y'know mental health ishooes) but am Human Again... so i think i may stay as me for a bit.
