£12.99 in Oxfam!

Post by Mallard »

I went to see George at Hasda to find a coat to wear at the lottie as my old wax jacket has seen better days (and a smaller waist). All I bought was two T-shirts for a fiver.
On the way home I called at oxfam for a book, I spotted a coat on the rack, tried it on and it fitted perfectly. :-D But £12.99 seemed a lot of money, it was better than my best coat so I got it! I'm not well up on labels, this one said Schott; I looked it up, when James Dean, Brando or Big John wore a bomber jacket that was the make! )grin2( $160 worth, I'd found a bargain.
Got a yellow donkey jacket for the plot! :?
