Hi All.
If anybody is thinking of buying a new textile jacket then check out this link.

I bought one of these in red just over 2 years ago. It is a nice jacket, the picture does not do it justice. I can vouch that the jacket is waterproof. Just don't wash it with detergent as I did a couple of weeks ago. I have now ruined the waterproofing. I have tried Nixwax wash and spray and I am still getting wet. I paid £100 for this jacket. This time I am goung to go for an IXS Gortex jacket.
This jacket kept me dry on a trip from Portsmouth to Kilmarnoch in Scotland when is poured with rain for at least one and a half hours of the journey.
I think at £49.99 it is a bargain.
Kind regards
Tim
