I just put waterproof black trousers on, and stick my hi-fis waterproof jacket on.

but generally when i have to do that i normally clean 2more... and go home, as the rain would be too heavy, ....

rest of time just swap a couple of fleeces if its not too bad.

gazza i find working in the rain a lot easier with wfp! ;)im also on a big estate of very compact work so i just cracked on with it!it did ease off a bit this afternoon but it still rained pretty heavy for around 2 hours and i didnt even stop for dinner!! .i dont want to get behind as im used to being straight up !again because of wfp.

you are joking I was in the army and not even the army actually wear the poncho's they are for making make shift tents, they only work when held taught and will leak if you wear it touching you.

A decent set of gortex would be much better

Why waste money when you can DIY.

Just get some Cling Film from the Supermarket, a pounds worth will keep you dry all day. Just wrap around your body and away you go.

We can have a competition to find who sells the cheapest Cling Film, we just need someone to spend the next 4 days walking around the Supermarkets to find the best deals.

Get a black bin liner, cut 3 holes for head and arms - sorted! Cheapest place = pound shop!

I have always found that by the time I get round to thinking about putting on my waterproofs I am already wet and there is no point.

Is it tiled or thatched

[Dave Willis]

Tiled  It's raining hard now and I'm as dry as a bone!

[RO-Sheen]

Definately Goretex. It is expensive but is worth it. Got a lightweight jacket with a detatchable fleece inside. In the warm(ish) weather now you wont need it but the depths of winter the fleece inside is very warm!

This website has got discounts. Havent got the time to look through if they actually have Goretex but they do Helly Hansons version.
