Budget waterproof jacket, and multi lensed sunnies.

Hi all. Riding a very wet Pru yesterday lead to me losing my sunnies (sorry for the littering, I dropped them on a hill and wasn't going to stop, they were only a few quid anyway) and I'd like a new pair for sub £30, any suggestions?

Also, my old faithful Altura waterproof has finally decided to become as waterproof as a teabag, I had my suspicions but yesterday clinched it. Any suggestions for a good, breathable, waterproof, yellow jacket? Approx £50 max.

Sorry for the limited budget but I'm not going to throw money away, I'm not loaded!

    The ones I lost weren’t worth anything either. Thanks for your help!

    Shame that you dropped them but at least they weren't oakleys or similar. I've just bought some btwin 900 series glasses from Decathlon. Come with 4 lenses and are solidly built. Lense changing very easy too. For £32 they are great value and performance is good too. Not a fashionable make but I guess you don't care about that.

    Ditto re the waterproof. Look at btwin range. Not something you use often anyway. Picked mine up for £5 second hand and it works fine when I need it which isn't often.
