Splendid, I will acquire one. (To fit it in my brief case I'll probably have to remove the donkey jacket and gold bars).
Not the one with the plastic covered shoulders though. In fact Next redesigned it into the reefer jacket and
stuck and extra 50 quid on the price.

Last Autumn, on a particularly windy and rainy day I popped into a shop to buy an umbrella and it functioned as such for around 7 seconds before being blown inside out and irreparably damaged.
That's 3 pounds I'll never see again.
I have one myself, and i'm really happy with it. 🙂

Audi is a part of the VW group.
From wiki
In 2015, Audi admitted that at least 2.1 million Audi cars had been involved in the Volkswagen emissions testing scandal in which software installed in the cars manipulated emissions data to fool regulators and allow the cars to pollute at higher than government-mandated levels. The A1, A3, A4, A5, A6, TT, Q3 and Q5 models were implicated in the scandal.
Do you own one?

I borrowed my mums umbrella a few months ago, after not getting back she bought me one for my birthday and asked for hers back... i didn't like the new one and said no. Best son ever 😵
Useless things anyway with our sideways Irish rain.

(BTW, it's Audi, not AUDI. It's the Latin translation of the German "Horch", not an acronym.)

Lol, so that’s where the sideways rain comes from!
That explains why my logs dry best against the western sided fence of my garden. 🙂
