The Postman Delivers:
Rubber. BLACK rubber.
And so we have a Swedish Stutterheim rain mac. So what if the ebay listing was under FETISH?
It’s a dirty job, but someone’s got to do it, etc.
There’s a shopping story behind this, involving R. The last shopping story involving R was centred around buying underpants in the West End.
This time we found ourselves along Ken High Street, doing the charity shop run. You always get a better class of charity shop hauls on this side of town, compared to say, erm, Streatham.
And there it was, staring me right in the face: a magnificent green Stutterheim mac.
“Go on, try it on”
I needed no encouragement from R.
The size ever so slightly put me off; the price tag more so.
A quick online shifty in the shop, and the £150 wasn’t that outrageous. But I had to let it go.
The clincher was that it looks like a fisherman’s mac. I live in a bloody fishing village. I couldn’t get away with that.
“Go on, YOU try it on”
…I told R. It suited him better tbh.
He umm-ed and ahh-ed and attempted to text B to see if she was cool with this.
JUST BLOODY BUY IT.
And so he did.
“You can always shift it on ebay”
…I reasoned.
A couple of hours later and I was back in the flat, searching for a Stutterheim black mac.
BINGO.
A week later and it arrived.
R and I are the Rubber Twins around Town. We look like we are heading out together for a specialist party.
