My god.. He's only wearing a tee shirt!

There are kids in Llandysul who don't discover that they can actually take a kagool off until they're about 14.

Haven't heard that word for about twenty years! Nor parka, come to think of it. Especially a snorkel parka. You still hear anorak though. But did a person ever get described as a kagool?*

*I always thought it was spelt cagoule, but it's not a word you tend to write much.

Since it's French, yes, it's cagoule (though it don't mean the same over there, AFAIK). 'Kagool' is a mis-spelling, perhaps because someone thought that 'cagoule' was too alien a word. Or maybe they imagined it was an Inuit word, like kayak or parka, & should have matching spelling.

I think anorak is also an Inuit word. Anyway, I really ought to think of a caption now.

Small point of passing (dis)interest: Mrs Wow had a Great Aunt who was wont to refer to a cagoule as a "goolie". This may have cause some mirth in certain quarters.
