Well, without going too far off topic, I did my A levels and a degree, and after a lot of different jobs I ended up in trees! The rainy days suck, but then you'll get a nice sunny breezy day in a great location and it'll put a smile on your face!

 

(Although I haven't had many!)

i shall be having a look at that, thanks for the help. at least you got here eventually, who doesn't love trees?! ahh unlucky, i've had a few, and yeah it's soo nice to be outside. x

Thanks Sam.

 

Tone, the one to look for is the field smock, under 'water and windproof lightweights'.

 

Very climber friendly.

 

If you want to try before you buy I'll lend you mine - after this bloody rain stops!

[Sam Thompson]

Bloody geordies, always moaning...

 

On a serious note another one to consider would be the Deerhunter smock here DEERHUNTER Game Stalker 2 Anorak - Clothing - Gun Shop, Shotguns, Rifles, Pistols, Air Rifles, Airguns, Gun Trader, Rifle Scopes, Accessories, Cabinets, Safes in Dorset and Devon, UK, Sportsman Gun Centre

 

 

When I had one it was very waterproof, quite and tough. Not too much cash either.

[jennie]

hahaha, but i agree, i think we remember what rain is now. cheers for all the help guys, guess i better get shopping then, what a chore... jokes. x

lowe maintenance makes a cracking jacket for climbing:)

[felixthelogchopper]

A mate of mine climbs in a Royal Navy surplus Goretex jacket and trousers which he rates well. Depending on your size, you might struggle finding them though. Don't be tempted to go for the Army surplus DPM stuff, doesn't seem to be the same quality.

Harkie Jacket. lightweight, high collars, long backs and 100% waterproof. Really had reservations at first due to the cost but they are really really good, this recent weather has tested them but i have always been dry at the end of the day.
