    I'm the sort of parent that would capture gunk in a jar and probably publish on said teenagers fb page, see, meaner than you!

    How annoying for you, the zip shrinking like that. Just shows zips aren't what they used to be. I have problems with clothes shrinking whilst hanging in the wardrobe. I don't understand it...

    At least you know, what a not in overdraft overdraft looks like, I can only dream!

    DH's suit does that between special occasions. Maybe it's the clothes sulking at not being worn very often???????:rotfl:

    Pippi! Fancy keeping the drain gunk :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: thats really funny ... also loving the concept of clothes shrinking while they're in the wardrobe, it makes a lot of sense to me :D

    I'm doing good - one odd thing that I didn't realise, is that having the shoulder op meant I had to wear things that did up the front, not t shirts - fortunately, because of all the charity shop buying I've been doing, as well as blouses kept from years ago, I now have plenty of choice!

    Hope the wedding dress / shawl hunt lets you find something you love :kisses3:
