DS has started to play U9 football, and i am going to be watching from the touchline. Can anyone recommend a really warm coat for this?. I dont particularly care if its stylish, as long as it keeps my bum warm until spring!

What size are you?

Landsend. I wear mine in Helsinki, and can wear a thin top underneath and be cosy in -15C. Remember you'll need cosy boots too - I can heartily recommend Merrell.

Only as I have a long goose down coat in my wardrobe that was obscenely expensive .i only wore it once because I bought it while I was carrying my baby weight. I am going to eBay it but can send you a pic if you are interested .

I think if you google clearance landsend you can find stuff cheaper that way. I got mine ridiculously reduced, under £40. I had loved it at full price but kept being unable to justify it! I love mine now?, although at 32 weeks pregnant it no longer zips!

I bought a lovely down filled long coat in TKMaxx about 2 yrs ago - it's been great, I love it it's so warm.

Merrell haven = waterproof electric blanket imho. Not very stylish but warm and bum covering too.
