I use just the standard wet suit from local hardware store (tare resistant) that go over ur normal work clothes. If u think ur gonna be to hot just wear somrthing light under it like t shirt and tracksuit bottoms or fleece and heavy bottoms if it really cold. I used to wear this when this when i was building blocks b4 resession and worked ok but if its heavy persistant rain it will eventully start to seep through to ur cloths around neck and sleaves.

Dazmond... are those "glacier "perfect curve" gloves" water proof? or are they just neoprene? because i have some neoprene gloves from gardiners which are no good when its freezing (as you probably know). they are good on cold days though cos the water gets trapped in and your own body temp warms the traped water up!

thanks

I think they meant rain proof work wear for window cleaning, not for your other night time job.
