Re: Raincoats Missing
Further to my posting I have been trying to work out why the French seem to be more into wearing shiny raincoats regardless of the weather than anywhere else . They love raincoats all the time as I know from my experience of visiting Paris .Many shops there openly sell rainwear and display them in ...

Re: Audrey Roberts (Coronation Street).
Audrey was wearing a black pvc mac made by Harglenis . I had one in white that I bought from C & A about the same time in the 90's . Great raincoats but sadly mine fell apart after some years as the PVC distintegrated. The trouble was after I bought mine I could not find another one to replace it.

Re: New Raincoat
Bought mine at the right time as they appear to be selling fast . I am hoping to buy a white one before they sell out.Might buy an Xl next time so I can wear it over a trenchcoat.

Re: Burberry Revisited
I returned the Burberry pink plastic raincoat back to them as after a week I decided that pink in a plastic raincoat did not suit me and my husband also disliked the colour , so I now have a Burberry gift card to the value that I can use anytime .Sadly no other colour choice for that coat . Perhaps ...
