Have any of the members had or still have a Totes nylon raincoat and if so, do you still wear it outside?
I am lucky enough to have four in different colours. I still love to hear the rustle as I walk.

As per the last time I went shopping (supermarket) and wore my favourite Totes beige hooded nylon mac. No sightings this time. My wife was with me so could’nt wear red or a skirt either.

I quickly turned around and made my way out of the shop and followed the guy across the carpark at a safe distance. He briefly ...

I went out this morning with my wife to get a few things in Dunelm and M&S. It had been raing quite heavily but it was now just light drizzle. I put on my favourite petrol blue Totes hooded mac, a 1980's classic, fully buttoned and with hood up. Being nylon it makes a lovely rustle as I walk.
We ...

Do tell us what you were wearing?

At last some good rain. I started by wearing my red nylon 'Rainmac' to venture a short walk to my car. What a thrill it was with hood up. I then had to take my wife to Tesco and assuming I thought my petrol blue nylon 'Totes' mac would be more acceptable, not a word in anger. We walked around Tescos ...

Maidjenny and rainworshipper, what did you wear out in the rain?
