    What about this one Spud?
    I like this one Spud... in fact I might buy it for watching DS play footie...


    I do like both of them, they're just not grabbing me like that other one did :o

    I've got a coat very like this, but in black that I've had a few years. It's rarely been worn because I save it for going out, but then dont really go out. I'm going to buy a nice new brolly and use that :D
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    I'd go for that Spud, no point saving stuff for good - you could die with a wardrobe of lovely clothes that never got worn! Sorry, a bit morbid but just enjoy wearing it!

    Spud, the first thing I remember about seeing you in Manchester was that you were completely normal and lovely (and thanks for the wee tipple in the hotel room);)................the way you had described yourself I thought you were going to look like Mrs blummin Hagrid:rotfl::rotfl:

    I probably frightened the life out of you when I launched myself at you in my red coat:o:rotfl:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Everybody seemed normal and lovely to me. Not a mad axeperson in sight.
    (weird woman in red coat though but was ok after a few. :rotfl:).
    It was all a revelation to a timid Bookie.
