You mean... she isn't? :wtf: Somehow I find it difficult to imagine Anna (or for that matter, anybody) stepping out of the house on a rainy day carrying an umbrella and wearing a bikini. :~ Cheers, Vikram.

How many of you use raincoats over umbrellas on a rainy day? I have seen more people using umbrellas but it doesn't protect well if the weather is very bad. It is also more troublesome to carry around than a raincoat. To me, i still prefer using an umbrella probably because raincoats has always been a childhoood thing/memory to me. Are raincoats only for kids? :~ Weiye Chen Life is hard, yet we are made of flesh...
As soon as starts raining, most street merchants here will start selling cheap/discardable raincoats for around US$1. Since summer rains are very strong, it's a common practice use both umbrellas and raincoats. But, if it's weekend, I just *love* to take the rain on a hot day, it brings me back memories from my childhood. I see dead pixels Yes, even I am blogging now!

Surely a clear PVC raincoat wouldn't hide anything? :-D -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit! Buzzwords!

Putting on a grimy raincoat can be a bit of a pain. Also when you get to wherever you are going you have this dripping, mangled coat that nobody wants to take from you. An umbrella you just shake dry. Plus a good raincoat costs more than an umbrella. You want one that is breathable unless you don't mind sweating up a storm. If you are wearing a nice suit you don't want it crumbled, smeated or dirtied by a raincoat. In really bad weather though you are right, umbrellas don't work. But most of the time an umbrella is fine. p.s. I am a coat man though :) regards, Paul Watson South Africa Colib and WebTwoZero.

Our merchants just get a dazed look in their eyes like deer in your headlights. Probably because all the rain comes in a few months a year.... and the weather prediction that morning said 20% chance of rain... Mini-umbrella under the seat of my car. But I never take it into work, unless it is downpouring when I arrive. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.

Clear PVC? How tacky!! If I ever get into PVC believe me it will be black.

I don't melt. My clothes don't waterspot. I don't wear anything thin enough to go transparent when wet. Why bother with either.
Because clients don't appreciate you sitting in their chairs with wet pants. Nither is it fun sitting in a cinema for two hours with wet pants. And you won't get a bank loan if you meet your bank manager in wet pants. regards, Paul Watson South Africa Colib and WebTwoZero.

I have an umbrella in the car, under my desk, and at the house. I very rarely use any of them, but it good to know they're there. It's much easier to for me to carry an umbrella if I need it, than keep a raincoat around. Especially considering I'm not in the rain very long if it is raining. BW
