I commute by public transport to work everyday and sometimes I am fortunate enough to experience rain (always a blessing when you live in a drought plagued city). Sometimes a umbrella is necessary and i find that I am frequently subject to umbrella mishaps as they fall apart from being blown inside out.I was excited to find this tutorial on Burda Style for fixing umbrellas. It fits in with our re-use 'mend and make do' ethic, where it's preferable to use what you have ahter than constantly buying replacements.
As I haven't seen rain for a little while, I thought I'd indulge with some cute umbrella pics...

I should get one of these for my other half but men don't use umbrellas apparently!

What a great brollie collection...and the strange thing about men and umbrellas that I've noticed is that only men in suits seem to use them!?
