    Queued today for about 2 hours to get tickets. It was ******* freezing. There must have been at least half-a-dozen kids in the queue without a coat on. A lad just in front of me had literally turned blue. He was clearly in serious pain. Jeans, T-shirt and a tracky top, yet despite his obvious severe discomfort he didn't even zip his tracky top up. Too cool for a coat. Mental.

    Yours, a sad old b'astard. But a warm one.

    I'm (recently) 22 and have a fantastic coat.

    Got a new Barbour jacket. A real one too, a rarity in Barnsley.

    Not a garish Barbour International one either.

    Look slick as ****. And warm.

    As you say, mental, but there's nothing new there is there? Kids have always been like that - no good looking wrong wearing a proper coat, gloves, hat etc is it?
    I was never like that though - frostbite is NEVER a good look ;)

    Remember going out in town and not wanting to wear a coat no matter what the weather - now I don't give a toss if I've got a massive coat on when I go to the pub!!

    I see people at games in just a top or possibly two layers and I can't understand how they don't die before half time.
