I've spent the day in a black pvc one-piece motorcycle suit, with black rubber boots and a black rubber sou'wester. Very hot walking around the shops in all that!

well as it wasnt raining i didnt wear a wet weather outfit. I certainly would never walk around shops in a one piece rubber suit, would be far too hot and uncomfortable but each to their own I suppose

It was raining here in South Wales but not very heavily so I just wore a Yellow PVC Guy Cotten smock with a hood and jeans, quite casual compared to the SBR I usually flaunt on wet weather days.

we've just enjoyed yet ANOTHER rainy day here ... so I decided full weather protection was in order for a walk in a nearby park where few people go if the weather is bad:

I wore: my shiny yellow PVC-U-LIKE raincoat over heavy yellow bib pants and my favourite pair of Wellingtons/rainboots and I also added my new pair of SBR rubber gardening gloves to everything!!

Sadly my walk coincided with a lull in the rain, but an hour after getting home, the heavens really opened up again! Go figure...

Last night we got 2 inches of wet snow. So this morning I went to showel it away wearing blue softshell jacket, dark blue AprilRain bib pants on top of the jacket and red rubber boots. A perfect outfit when passing cars were splashing the wet snow and we should clean the pavement also in front of our house. Most people walking by were wearing rubber boots.

I know what you're thinking, but it really is all but inoperative. I can still take photos, but the zoom has just about frozen up (it's very jerky), I can't scroll back to look at older photos and it also won't allow me to manually adjust settings *sigh*

It's a Canon A650is - anybody know why it might be behaving like this?

It has been raining today so I wore my black pvc mac when I went out for a walk to the shops today.
