Any suggestions please...

I swear to god martha, it was eiter the biggest dog turd of all time, or a small pony. I skidded up the road in it, and then fell in it! It was all over me, in my shoe, up my leg, all over my trousers. A guy ran up to pick me up and see if I was OK, he was so stunned by the smell, he dropped me back in the shit!

yes dh is scientist and he looks exactly like Beaker.
I am one lucky lady

If the white coat is causing a major problem how about a 'stereotypical' prefessor.

Tweed trousers, mucky brown/green shirt and wooly tank top?

pmsl mb!

This was about 17-18 years ago and I still bear the scars

I remember standing in dog poo as a child, while wearing sandals and no socks - it all squidged over the top and between my toes. Maybe that's why I don't like dogs to this very day...

Can we please stop talking about dog poo DP has just gone to get me tea...

Tell him to go to school in his jeans and T-shirt - and take this quote with him:

Scientists wear all sorts of clothes, depending on what their jobs are. Someone who studies dolphins might wear a wet suit. Someone who studies rocks on mountains might wear jeans and hiking boots. Some wear things to keep them safe, like a lab coat and goggles if they are working with chemicals in a lab. Most wear normal clothes and you would not be able to tell them apart from teachers, accountants, lawyers, or most other occupations.

Thanks all again, if I cant find some sort of lab coat I will use a white shirt andspike his hair up and add some accesories

I have got a white shirt off my dad that is perfect as a lab coat. Have got some safety glasses with a cord so DS can have them round his neck and a plastic magnifying glass. Any suggestions as to what I can write on the lab coat... if anything should be written on the lab coat.

You tend to to have anything written on a lab coat, but you might have a name badge

No you don't need anything written on the labcoat.

Thanks everyone, you have been a great help
