Who used to have an afghan coat?

Supplied by Alan King

Judie Struys… Mine smelt very goaty

Alan King… you had to pay extra for that

Judie Struys… I wish I’d gone for the cheaper option then. I bought mine from Priti Novelties in Eversfield Place. It was run by an Indian couple. The whole shop was redolent of patchouli oil and afghan goat.

Tony Court-holmes… miss mine

Diane Leigh… My sister had one had to keep it in the shed because of the smell

Christine Pachner… Boy did they smell !

Gerry Fortsch… That gets the memory working.

Mandy Wright… I loved that shop xx

Diane Knight… Used to wear mine to the Black Horse pub and my brother in law Eddy (the landlord)used to make me leave it outside the kitchen door

David Kent… I remember Eddy, was his surname Dunford? Loved the Black Horse – regular Sunday lunchtime haunt.

Phyllis Mendenhall… Cor I remember mine and it smelt really bad I couldn’t wear it

Dave Nattress… You bet. Kensington market special a White one with hardly any embroidery and also a cut down with no sleeves normal fawn or brown with loads of embroidery. Real weekend hippie stuff went well with the loon pants!

Jacqueline Marsh… Oh but the smell of them yuk
