richmond, I would have one of the Smith umbrellas or a Brigg.
Though at the moment I have a £2.50 umbrella from Wilkinsons.

I'm the one sensibly holding the brollies. The other man is a fish flasher who should take his crack underwater, in the cause of public decency.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Latchigo, astonishingly, I've had mine for about 15 years and haven't lost it yet.

What is it about ski poles. You can steal my skis, my identity, my wife, my car if you like... but don't you dare touch my poles... or even look at them, not even a glance. In fact, now my gander is up, don't even think about them or mutter something about them under your breath. You're just making me flip now. Come on if you think you're hard enough.
rungsp, I think your good lady handled it perfectly.

These little beauties are the best darn brollies out there... www.euroschirm.com - not cheap but they can take a real punishing and v light. Oh yeah, don't look at my brolly either, right!

In the Sella Ronda area of Italy, there last half term, I was suprised to see the abundance of ski locks integrated into the ski racks even one that resembled the Tardis with twenty or so dors round the outside, 50Cents is a fair price for peace of mind where £500 skis are concerned. I have used a £12 ski lock for several years now and I feel for the extra minute or so of faffing I can munch my way through lunch happy my kit is safe.
Granted if the theiving B*****ds want it they will take it but it all comes down to making their lives harder,
"shall I take these nice shiny locked skis or the ones next to them that are not locked?"
Harsh attitude I know but sorry I operate the same philosopy with my Vehicles alarm and visible wheel clamp when left on the driveway - take nextdoors car

Can we get back onto the subject of um-bar-ellas please?
The question posed by the OP if I recall correctly (most unlikely) was as follows;
If, when out skiing in Verbier in the pouring rain, an oik should have the godd-damn audacity to seek shelter under ones Villerroy-unt-Bosh brolly should one:
a. Punch his 'kin lights out, no messin, it's the only language they understand, then string 'em up.
b. Offer to program their on-piste sat-chav to New Oxford Strasse W1 where thay will be able to peruse a vast selection of bespoke brollies-to-the-gentry starting at an oik-friendly 1029€
c. nick someones ski-pole from outside Ruinettes and stick it where the son don't shine
d. all of the above.
dang... this should have been a pole (no pun intended)

Timmaah, You can get them from any ski shop - generally about £10-£15.
Or you could use a coil type bicycle lock (that is what I do), for about half the price, from most cycle shops or DIY shops.

I thought ski poles were flasks? Lagavulin in one, Ardbeg in the other.
