Umm... Mr. Robin, you may well have come to the right place. Step into my office. (My Mum and Dad run a saddlery and my Mum sits or sat on the British Equestrian Trade Association council).

Corks :) Whereabouts is your parents place?

I basically want a nice posh looking black riding jacket for Whitby gothness.

It's in Waltham Abbey in Essex, just off the M25 (1 junction from the M11), which might be a little out of your way unless your heading into London for the clubbing with the dancing and the drinking and glowsticks so bright they blind me!
I might be able to ask if they know of anywhere in your neck of the woods as well (though not until Thursday as they're on holiday at the minute)

I warn you, these things ain't cheap from what I remember when I worked there, and usually they have to be ordered in by most places. That said it was 10 years ago I worked for them so plenty may have changed.

Ah yers, not too bad really; and I do have to scoot to London before Whitby anyway... the ordering may be a hassle as I have no idea of my size.
From what I've seen they're around 130-150 quid, which I'm quite prepared for, clothes addict that I am :)
Mucho gracias for the help!

Well the address is
Janette Moss Horse Wear
9 Arlingham Mews
Waltham Abbey
Essex

Tel. 01992 712908
They're open until 5:30 every night except Sundays when they close at Mid-day
I'd suggest calling ahead, tell them you're a mate of mine if you like. I can't guarantee it'll get you anything cheap unfortunately, but it might get you an even more polite service ;)

Now, that's quite enough plugging from me I think.

If it's any help, I believe Bridlepath in Bury St Edmunds is still open, which is a fairly extensive saddlery/riding doo-dah shop.
