if you drive to work, do you take a rain coat?

[Crumpetdisappointment]

or cardigan.
on friday my colleagues were saying they couldnt leave the office because they werent appropriately dressed
however i saw the forecast said rain at home time, 5 pm, and didnt want to get wet on the way to the car
are you an optimist like my colleagues?

I always make sure I have something in case I break down!

I always have a weather appropriate coat in the car in case of breakdown or for going for a walk at lunchtime but virtually never drive in a coat or take it out of the car and into the office as I'd probably forget to take it home again (if I do take one inside I leave my car keys in the pocket so I can't forget it but its annoying if you get to the door and realise both coat and keys are still in the office). I don't have a smart coat apart from a thin black one for funerals, just waterproofs, puffas etc.

Yes, as I could be asked to do playground duty in any day. So always have a waterproof coat with me, just incase. And now it's got colder I take a warmer waterproof one daily.
