What umbrella?

Not only that, there’s a dedicated umbrella drawer under the front seat

Isn’t that supposed to hold the lifejacket ?

The hatred for umbrellas is news to me. I always walk out with mine in the rain rather than – well – not.

I don’t any more, because I got thoroughly fed up with fighting the bastard thing for supremacy when it’s raining and there’s a 50knt wind, it’s impossible to see anyone walking towards me because they’re all fighting with their brollies, and there’s overgrown hedges and cars parked on the pavement making it impossible to squeeze through the minuscule gap thoughtfully left by the car drivers.

Easier to stuff a cheap £20 Peter Storm packable jacket in a bag just in case, and more stays dry anyway. Doesn’t drip all over the floor when you get home, either.

The CMS detector at the LHC. Got it from the Science Museum a few years back.

Does it magically dry itself whilst scrunched up on the floor?

We just bought a CHWNXK from Amazon. Or it may have been from rival brand DQNCRLT, I forget. Either way, it’s been basically fine

Fulton, classy and understated, like most forumees as it happens.

I have a London Undercover in black with white/black fine houndstooth lining, think it’s a classic or city gent model, bought it years ago so they may have changed the names and they don’t do that lining now but loads to choose from, has a one piece wooden shaft and is certainly well made, would probably buy a more funky colour if buying again.

Full length, none of this folding nonsense for strutting around town. I did bend a strut in an epic storm but just bent it back, keep meaning to drop it off at the shop for a new strut to be fitted.
