I suspect that will hold out the rain for about 5 mins.
The way it's been belting it down recently, I don't reckon anything I could afford will keep the rain out for longer than that

Ohhhhhh I really like that. Did you get one in the end Thimble Queen ?
No. I went to see it in a shop and it was a bit flimsy and crap. Its not even waterproof - much needed over here. So I went to the haberdashery and bought some special strong thread and some good needles and fixed my existing backpack for a fiver instead. I'm happy with my fixed backpack

Good, it's a bloody waste of money. That's most of a months food shop. I couldn't justify it even if it is beautiful
It really is beautiful

I've had my poncey square backpack for about 4years, regular use, no damage and no leaks.

I do. One of those fjalkrakenshprecken wotsits. Used it at Uni, for travelling (fits in hand luggage cage easily), grocery shopping, work, general gadding about. It's black with red straps. Zip hasn't given me any trouble even though I do tend to cram it full of stuff.You mean you have one of those above

I like it.
Definitely wasn't £75 though

And Thimble Queen and Rutita1 : I just got one direct from China for £12 including postage
It appears to be real (all the branded zips, all the proper tags, little leaflet inside etc). Have a look on eBay.Eta I do know what you mean by flimsy but I think it's just the (easily replaceable) straps. The bag itself seems robust enough. For me, anyway.
Bargain, hand made and will last many, many years if looked after. You can (almost) never spend too much on shoes

I want the M&S beauty advent calendar but it’s £35 plus you have to spend £35 to be able to buy it. Purchase can’t be food.
I have bought one for a friends b’day tomorrow though buying Xmas gifts in order to do so. Now a friend told me she bought a M&S dress, bought the calander then returned the dress & they let her keep the calander.

For some reason I've also got a hankering for a pair of these fell walking boots made by the last boot maker in Britain.

Who makes these?
There are quite a few boot makers left in Britain?
Not mass production but hand made beauties.

Apologies, I've got a lurking feeling this has been on the thread (or on urbs) before but I got strangely hypnotised by its charm. Not at that price tho:
