Argh, not another monsoon shower. There is, however, nothing worse than trying to quickly get into a car while you're struggling with an umbrella. By the time you've succeeded in getting both yourself and the brolly inside, the interior resembles the rain-swept cliffs of Dover. Bad enough there's a pool forming on the carpet, it's soaking through the seats and ruining the leather. The Car Umbrella with Drainer comes in handy here, and is a simple if effective way to catch all that water rolling off your umbrella. The device looks like a giant mug which you slot into one of your cupholders, and provides a holder at the same time for your brolly. Alternatively, being, ah, frugal Asians, you can grab those free grocery bags at the supermart as a substitute.
