Since this post of mine in which I identify Jessica I have completed eleven pieces or chapters and have to admit that it is turning into a novel and engaging a great deal of my spare time. Yesterday for instance I spend five hours in the coffee shop writing. Because this is now a 'work in progress' I am not going to post any further instalments here for the time being
I will be keen to offer ancillary material like for instance my recent conversation with Weathervain about their 'Trenchcoat' in rubberised Satin. I was surprised to hear that 'Satinette' was not something familiar to the person with whom I had an agreeable conversation. For me the era of the single-texture ladies mackintosh was dominated by the proofed satinette, not as shiny as satin--more subtle sheen which had me under its spell. I acquired two apple green maids mackintosh coats in the latter days of The Scottish Waterproof Company. One was 40 inches in length and the other 42, the latter with attached hood. They were both purchased together as the shelves were becoming thin. They had a long and active life with us before physically disappearing into oblivion.
