  waterproof trousers
what a random subject i hear you cry! but a serious one!

i heard today a horrifying story involving waterproof trousers. a lady was climbing whilst wearing waterproof trousers, she slipped and because of the trousers she couldnt stop due to them being really slippy. she slid all the way down the side of the mountain and unfortunatly died.

please think when wearing these brilliant trousers for keeping you dry and making you look super sexy, they have no grip to them and i dont want to hear another story like this.

im sure you are all very sensible people, but i just thought id bring this up.

 no disrespect to the lady, but would you climb if it was raining?

 AHAHAHAHA.

"brilliant trousers for keeping you dry and making you look super sexy"

Oh so sexy, it's like..when you wake up on the 4th-5th day of camp, the showers aren't working, there's no toilets with water, your hair hasn't been brushed in days, you forgot your make up remover at home and you're wearing mascara from 3 days ago...THATS sexy, almost as sexy as waterproof trousers.

*pictures some fat old woman wearing royal blue shiney waterproofs*

HAH

 they only cost so much at retail outlets, the scouts waterproof is actually cheap compared to the every other outdoors shop and compares with the peter storm one i had a while back
