    I'm not one for changing clothes much, I tend to look scruffy most of the time.

        Any clothes will wash up and clean via a scrubbing board and wringer, then blown dry in the wind on my string line. :loll:A good set of wellies to.

          You talking about me? :old: :snork:

          That, sort of, applies to me.

          Most of the time, not gardening, I'm in tracksuit bottoms and rugby top (although I do dress up a bit for weddings and funerals). When gardening I dress differently - rugby top and tracksuit bottoms :heehee:. If it's cold I also wear an old, padded, gardening jacket that's falling apart and if it's really cold I put on thermal vest and longjohns. Rubber gardening shoes or wellies depending on the weather and job to be done.

            I wear jeans in various stages of decomposition, held up with propers braces with buttons - Mrs A-A has a gardening coat purchased 10 years ago from a charity shop for 25p - still going strong!!

              Old RAF trousers (Green cotton) old T shirt + a old jumper,Coat that is falling a bits and wellies. My wife tells me I look like a tramp!! and she has seen tramps clothed better.She cringes when I walk just down the road to the petrol station and tells me to change.I do not think anyone notices or if they do they say nothing and keep their distance:) Cannot be any worse than people who turn up at petrol station with pyjamas + slippers:huh:
