I get dressed to drive dh to the 6 a oclock train (we leave here at 5:30/5;45 am) but If I hadn't already been doing animals I would happily do the journey in pjs.

You still doing animals lir?

Unfortunate turn of phrase, I admit. However distinctly quicker than saying feeding, foraging, watering, cleaning, moving, letting out, exercising, fetching in and rug changing.

we do often, but not very traditionally. evening dress, or evening skirts and long sleeved t shirts and welly socks and big cardis is popualar with me. I actually do have a nighty I where as ''at home'' evening dress. It was my mum's in the seventies, very cool with oodles of mismatched necklases and some killer heels. DH puts pj trousers on with a velvet/smoking jacket at home. or his Doge's costume.

Everyone, all three of them, except me, wore velvet jackets and jeans to our wedding.

Since this is an anonymous forum and no one actually knows me, I will make a confession.

When I don't have to go to the office, I do the school run in my PJ's. I was once stopped for speeding dressed in my night attire. Not my finest moment.

I haven't actually gone to Tescos in my flannelette nightie but I don't entirely rule it out. Depends how desperately I need milk.

EDIT Upon espying my mode of dress, the local constabularly decided to breathalyse me too. Those little tubes are bliddy hard to blow into when you smoke a packet a day.

noticed this in my local paper.

Now, there have been stories recently about people being prevented going into tescos in nightwear &/or slippers. In my mind, I can see their point with that. I don't see why people can't be bothered to get dressed. If they're "only nipping in for fags/milk/bread/whatever" then it makes sense surely for them to "only pop a tshirt/top/clothes" on & be respectable in appearance.

However, is the above story, refusing to allow schoolchildren in, whilst they are wearing prescribed uniforms.

Is it reasonable to expact them to leave their bags outside? Surely the bags are at risk of being nicked. ill tersco ensure they are safe/looked after? Doubt it. We're all familiar with the "cars left at owners risk" sign.

Tesco is going too far in this case I feel.

Would value the thoughts of others...

Tesco will always push it and we;ll all end up shopping there

I also have a confession to make. Tuesday is wheelie bin day and last night I got in from work and jumped straight into bed and ordered a pizza. The oh came up around 9 and said I had forgotten to put the bin out when I got home. I was naked in bed and couldn't be bothered getting dressed so I took her pink dressing gown off her and put my trainers on. Yes you've guessed it as I got to the bottom of the drive good old Mr.Kingsley who lives opposite was putting his out at the same time.

This raises more questions.

What was he wearing?

why did you not put on your own dressing gown?

Does she not mind you dealing with the bins in her dressing gown? I'd hate that.

We have our wheelie professionally cleaned every fortnight and a huge inner bag placed in it. You could literally eat your dinner on it. I have ocd if you hadn't already noticed

He might have turned quicker..
what about boxers?
too weird. Thats sort of OCD by proxy if you get other people to do it. I hose the bin out but only when the weaher is good for it: hot or windy, and only when in needs it. However clean it was I could never eat my dinner off it.
