Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

In case it's of help to anyone - Just bought a men's (but it seems fine on a non-man too) Dare2b 'Requisition' jacket off the link below for £23 inc p&p (UK).
XL and XXL only but I'm about a size 12-14 UK and it's just nicely but not over-baggy on me with my usual thermals and jumper underneath, covers the bum well enough.
Also on EB though a little bit dearer.
Very lightweight, kind of softshell, 20k waterproofness, adequate if usual small pockets, decent big hood with adjusters, double front zip, ventilation zips, etc. Orange and off-white. Pretty much shell only, not insultated, but from experience they're not exactly cold jackets and are great for people who do layering.
Bought primarily as a mountain/walking jacket, but also as a back up ski/board one, and it'd do absolutely fine as such too. I have many D2b walking type jackets and think that they're great for all purposes.
