Anyone still wearing their vests. !, I am well it’s more a camisole really but I cant do with a cold back, wearing nothing under a top. I think I will have to have it surgically removed before June begins ,

Such a funny thread my family laugh at me with the layers. I look like a bag lady and I wear fleecy socks in bed.

Yes, still wearing an extra layer and I can't believe I'm still wearing boots in May as I'm usually in sandals by now.

T-shirt, blouse/shirt (thick linen where possible) and cardigan. And the wood burner is lit.

Oh yes, the liberty bodice Marmight with the sticky rubber buttons where one or two would be squashed through the mangle grin Fuzzy-lined knickers too in navy for school.

On Saturday we were on Loch Lomond and once anchored in a south facing bay out of the breeze it was shorts and bikini top weather.
I’m Scottish. Perhaps we’re hardier. ?

Still wrapping up as if in the middle of Winter, although 13 deg, the old North Wind doth blow.

On Saturday it poured with rain most of the day, I managed a short walk in the morning, during what proved to be the longest dry patch of the day. It was also blowing a howling gale.

I did, briefly, consider, getting into my shorts and bikini top, to take the house compost bucket up to the compost heap, but in the end, donned my wellies and a waterproof to do so.

I don’t wear vests but I have got a thermal t short underneath my jumper

EV. Did your school knickers have a pocket for your hanky? ?
My liberty bodice didn’t have buttons. It went on like a vest, only shorter ending at the waist, and was ‘woolly/fuzzy’ on the inside

Polo shirt and sandals here same as I have worn through this quite mild winter.
Still raining here as it has been for days, love the pic MawBe

Vest, polo neck jumper, cardigan and a twenty year old fleece. The wind is blowing, rain sheets down every so often and I can’t remember the sun ..
