I was in a second hand shop in town on the weekend and found an excellent calssic, single-fronted Grenfell mac in beige, still with the Grenfell tag on it. I've got one just like it in off-white that I bought from J Simons' old shop, but sadly this one is too small for me - it's a 36.
They're asking 25 notes, if anyone's interested I can get it for them and post it on. As I recall, it had a couple of marks, but nothing that wouldn't clean up easily.
It belonged to someone with style and taste because it was with a whole load of top quality, tailor-made suits, done in the English style, from a tailor in Oxford - all also 36s! So either someone's had a clear out or, I fear, pegged it.
Let me know if you're interested.
