Really? The idea doesn't exactly scream glamour at me, but I could be wrong. I often am.

Topshop had some in the sale.

Well, I think it's the kind of item men dont 'get'. Not sure who it would be flattering on either. They are probably wildly fashionable though. This sort of thing tends to take me by surprise a bit.

Duffle coats can make you look cute and winsome (can't they? [hopeful emoticon])

Agree Topshop have nice ones.

Anyone over 12 in a duffle coat should receive an on the spot fine of £50 and immediate confiscation of said item.

You're a harsh woman, moondog. You wouldn't just be grumpy today, would you?

moondog · 29/12/2005 20:51

Yes,you're right,I am in a foul mood.
My deveined leg is not healing as it should and an infection has set in. Have spent the last 8 days stuck inside in my pyjames,so forgive me.

(Still hate the Cure and duffle coats though...)

Oh moondog no! Sorry I only just saw this. No need to apologise as your grumpiness was quite entertaining. I do hope your leg improves - maybe you should change your pyjamas?
