I slipped up and bought myself a Dare2Be Skiiing Parka it to bloody warm for use except in the absolute worst of weather, anything above minus 3 / 4 and its too warm to wear, so now I'm back to fleeces under soft shells

Another post for new members who perhaps don't have a lot of outdoor experience:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BIVVY-REVERSIBLE-Thermal-Jacket-Bag-Water-Resistant-Outdoor-66307-/161392894110?var=&hash=item2593c4209e:m:m-0GDRstnGiIXhEtSy16mRg
Very good jackets, not a lot of dosh and perfect for UK winters when combined with a waterproof outer. If your wearing under layers (as you should), combine these jackets with the matching trousers and a Goretex bivvy bag and your good for at least three season UK use, maybe four season.
