This. Where I live and walk the dog, is a very popular kite surfing,, wind surfing and swimming spot. I see a fair amount of dry robes being worn but then again, anyone who goes into the English Channel in Dec /Jsn/Feb etc.. is going to be more interested in getting warm and dry than any 'fasion...
Jeez. Media shite stiring b0llocks.
So, someone wears a big coat to the supermarket. Who cares? My neighbour a couple of doors down, into wind surfing big time, wore one walking his dogs along the beach the other day. I didn't think "oooh there's a green dinosaur".
