BTW, what do you think about the suit are you wearing ?
There is plenty of Rain in the UK, how does it goin the bad weather.. ?
There is a dealer here in Oz that sells it but nobody knows anything about it so I was wondering what you thought !
Cheers

Cheers we had a great week.
The suit is an Akito desert and in my opinion is not worth the money. Fortunately not seen to much rain this year, but after a mad 20 minutes from Folkestone to Dover to catch a ferry last year, i was fairly wet. Both myself and my wife have this kit and she fefuses to wear hers now. Only had them around 3 years but you would have thought nearer 10! Trousers are ok, but the jacket is not that good IMHO.

Thanks for that, Really appreciate it...
I'm thinking the Revvit suit sounds like the best for the money !!!

Is that Manor Park London?
If so the park is further down, unless they have built on it?
if they have, my old stomping ground as a kid, (I come from Bethnal Green)
