    :eek::eek::eek::eek:

    Just tried on the clothes that arrived today again, they are a good fit but as two of them are wool and might shrink I am sending them back for the bigger sizes, so technically I have only spent another £20 so far;)

    Love the justification :rolleyes: but are you sure about bigger sizes if they are a good fit :confused:

    Well, they cling in all the right places;) But I think they will shrink after a wash and they really can't afford to get any smaller. If they were cotton it would be okay, just a bit worried about them being wool.

    I hate returning things, having wrap everything up and then spend half an hour queueing in the post office and waiting for new things to be delivered. I want them now!

    I like this colour :D I like bright coats - I have a red trench coat that I love :j

    Yeah, I like the colour too, but the navy one is nice aswell. Oh, don't start me off...there's a lovely red coat in Warehouse I love :eek: :D

    Yes, I've seen the £10 off, thanks. Just deliberating what to order.. You're not encouraging me...the jacket purchase has already been well justified in my own mind :D.

    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending

    Exactly, plenty of time for baggy in a few years, but while everything is pretty much still in the right place I may as well show them to their best advantage:D
