Mention of Kendal makes me remember other retail outlets which I used regularly in the 1. Faiman, Richards, Etam, to name but a few. And then there was the late, great C & A, with their wonderful ranges at such reasonable prices.

I bought my Adrina nylon mac from there, one of my most prized items. I could write a book about this pakamac alone- another "waterproof love story" yet to come. Watch this space!

October 2. 01. 7. If it's the same Kendal that had a shop in Pontypridd in the late 1. I certainly remember them and the lovely see- through plastic poncho that I bought there; I still have it today although it's gone yellowy.

Hi Chris, thanks for your comment on my macs. Any chance of some details of the plastic macs you bought ?

Comments by G on 2. October 2. 01. 7. Hi Brian good to hear from you often think when passing Birmingham on the M6 of you and the wonderful collection of macs you have what is the count to date?

I once bought several see through plastic jelly jackets from them, in one go, and the girl asked me if I was going on a boating trip! We all have our own, unique waterproof experiences, our own waterproof Love Stories, to adapt those Tesco advertisements. Comments by Chris on 2. October 2. 01. 7.

Hi G I bought a couple of Rainstar macs for my late wife they were fantastic macs also some transparent plastic macs my favourite yours sound great Jeff if you are reading this. Comments by G on 9th October 2. Hi does anybody remember the nylon macs made by Kendal then some time later the Rainstar nylon mac happy days. Comments by Jeff on 4th October 2. Hi G,We stayed in a cottage close to Aberaeron and went into Aberaeron a couple of times and New Quay. Very enjoyable. Comments by G on 2nd October 2.

Hi Jeff sounds like you have had enjoyed a good break was it Aberaeron you went to in West Wales. Comments by Jeff on 2. September 2. 01. 7. Well, my see- through plastic mac certainly had some use over the past fortnight ! Wore it for most of the day on Sunday in Ambleside and Coniston and also a lot of the time on a Hebridean island, followed by a wet day in West Wales. Now looking forward to a couple of days in Blackpool to top it off.

Jeff. Comments by G on 1. September 2. 01. 7. Hi Susan what a wonderful collection of macs you have I also love PVC macs and them black macs you have must be difficult for you to decide what mac to wear that's great.

Comments by Susan on 1. September 2. 01. 7. Having bought six nylon macs, one PVC Mack and eight plastic macs this year, an onlooker may well describe this period of time as period of almost a resurgence! OK, it's not the hay- day Pakamac years but with Amazon, e. Bay and the pvc- u- like offerings plus the Rainmac sale, I'm certainly celebrating. This year, I discovered black EVA plastic macs. I'm hooked. OK, no lovely plastic aroma but the weight, sound, feel and look is fabulous.

Comments by Rob on 8th September 2. Hi Jeff. It is nice to hear about your holiday. Wherever you are going in the lake district and then Scotland I am sure you will have a nice time. I think you are right you might have a lot of rain especially on sunday but it sounds like you are prepared for it and so hopefully you can sill have a nice time even if it rains all the time! And if you like gardens there are some really lovely ones in Scotland. Comments by Susan on 7th September 2. G. The macs I saw were hooded unisex ones.

Comments by Jeff on 7th September 2. Hi Rob,We are off to the Lake District on Saturday and then on to Scotland.

According to the weather forecast I will be wearing my plastic mac most of the time. Comments by Jeff on 7th September 2. Hi G, the sight of your teacher in her plastic mac obviously remains very clear in your mind as does my memory of my sister in her pale blue translucent plastic mac which had a matching belt and a matching concertina style rain bonnet with ties that were tied under the chin. Happy days. Comments by G on 6th September 2. Hi Susan are the plastic macs you have seen in Edinburgh like the ones you wearing in your photo or are they them unisex ones regards GComments by Susan on 5th September 2. If anyone is visiting Edinburgh, it's always a good idea to look in the tourist shops on the Royal Mile. I've seen plastic macs on sale there quite recently.

Those memories of Blackpool remind me of all the plastic macs in shops in Skegness. The Lake District was always goood for plastic macs. So was Aberdeen a long time ago. Comments by Rob on 4th September 2.

Hi Jeff my wife's mac is clear but as you said it is semi see through. If you are going to Wales, the lake district and then Scotland I think you are right you will probably need yours. Comments by G on 4th September 2.

Hi Jeff good to hear from you I have had a thing for macs since infant school a teacher came to school in a transparent one and I have been hooked ever since it takes a exceptional understanding women to accept it and they are very rare you are lucky. Comments by Jeff on 3rd September 2. Hi Rob,Thanks for the reply. Your wife's plastic mac sounds nice; may I ask what colour it is ?

My friend sent me a photo of the packaging of the macs he has ordered and, although they are unisex, it shows a photo of a lady wearing a clear see- through mac. It didn't occur to me that they may be black. We are off to Scotland with them soon so I should be able to let you know.

My wife and I are also going to the Lake District and New Quay, west Wales over the next few weeks so I am expecting my plastic macs to get some use. Yes, it's a shame that we don't see plastic macs for sale in the shops these days. I used to particularly enjoy being taken to Blackpool when I was young and most shops would stock them and many would hang them outside on display, flapping in the wind; a lovely sight. MY wife never really liked plastic macs but tolerated them for my sake. Like most women, I suppose she feels comfortable wearing what other women are also wearing, not wanting to be classed as "odd". Regards,Jeff. Comments by Jeff on 3rd September 2.

Hello G, I certainly consider myself extremely lucky that my wife tolerated macs for about 1. As you say, I did get accused of liking macs more than her.

I accept that women are unable to understand how strong the attraction to macs can be. Watch Last Ounce Of Courage Online Ibtimes here.
