I went out without a coat on the other day.

I've only worn a coat once this winter
and even then I had to take it off because I was too warm.

Mind you, I do have a fair bit of natural insulation...

I want a lightweight 'pea coat' in black or grey please.
Or a wicked 'bridge coat' so I look like a Russian submariner.

Have you had a butchers at Ebay
Vintage coats, some proper old 50's ones on there, One of my biggest regrets is losing a 1940's GPO greatcoat that I found in a charity shop. Proper boss that was.

I'm not really tall enough for one of them.
My mate had this shit full length leather coat, with him being about 5'5" made him look a right silly twat.

Those airborne viruses float about until they find someone without a coat.
Obviously.

well yeah
lowering your body temperature too much lowers your defences, and the virus can get in more easily.

SCIENCE!

You dont catch a cold from being cold

not in isolation
but if you get too cold, you are more likely to succumb to the virus. SO THERE.
