Hi everyone my name is justin and this is the first time i have posted on the new forum! (although i used to post on the old one) I need help with something. I was looking through some of the pictures on the other menu and i came across fetish.renata's post. I was blown away by some of the fab plastic raincoats and i was really excited by the childrens style raincoat in the adult size!!! (it was the closest that i have seen to the ones that bring back so many memories from my childhood). Unfortunatly the link that was given was for a company in the czech republic (i think!) and that is not a language that i am expert at... So please can somebody help me get hold of these raincoats. Pete helped me a while back to get hold of the target raincoats from the u.s (many thanks again for that) so if anyone knows a way around this then i would be eternally in your debt


Thank you everyone

Justin

if you mean the site http://www.deston.cz there are more people (including me) interested. I've tried to contact the company before but with no succes.

Hello,
Try it in plain English!
If the Czechs want to sell ,they should understand and write Enlish !
Good luck, Peter

Thanks for the suggestion. I have sent an email to the company in English some time ago but with no response. i think we all need to get our heads together and think of a way to get our hands on these fantastic raincoats!!!

In October of last year I was in Prague, before I left I made an appointment to visit Deston it's a small company but when I arrived I got a warm welcome from the manager.
They only had small sizes of the "Florence" raincoat and would receive larger ones in November but I got addresses in Prague were I could buy them in XL.
Of other long plastic raincoats they had large sizes even up to XXXL so I bought a few of those, the manager (who does not speak good English) gave me a tour of the company and of course I made some pictures.
Nice people at Deston, if I ever go to Prague in the future I will surtenly visit them again.

if you use google chrome as your web browser it offers a translate service into pigeon English granted, whether that helps contact the company is another matter

Example translation by Google:
Dlouhá dámská pláštěnka vyrobená z matného 100% PVC, s kapsami a kapucou, stahovací bílé šňůrky v pase a na kapuce

Ladies long raincoat made of 100% frosted PVC, with pockets and a hood, draw a white drawstring waist and hood

..not bad, it works the other way also.

Mac users probably already know about the similar translation utility on the Dashboard.

Also there is BabelFish - http://babelfish.yahoo.com/ - which has a wider range of to/from languages, but is still a rudimentary sort of translator.
