You know you'll get caught wearing it by the person you least want to know that you have one, don't you? :rotfl:It's the going to the loo that bothers me:rotfl::rotfl:

Hmmm, useful I agree. But even the reviewers say it takes practice. That's an awful lot of spray back to clear up before one is dry. A nappy might be the answer....Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30

Mine is a different colour/heavier weight, and even better, it was free. Bosses gave me one of those pre-loaded credit cards and I was so sick of sitting in my North facing front room, freezing whilst watching TV, that I thought I don't care what it looks like, I need to be warm. However, despite their hype, I still need a blanket (or two) on top, the room is so cold.
.
Yes, it counts as a onesie I'm afraid. I'll be sticking with the heated throw :rotfl::rotfl:Skint_but_Optimistic wrote: »its a michelin man onsie! Amazing!

It's also impossible to switch away from, because it's got a special meter that no other company will touch.
*adds proper central heating system to the 'one day' wishlist*
Okay, extreme circumstances a onesie is allowed, but don't get addicted to it. I don't want to hear you've been seen shopping or mucking out in it :rotfl:Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30

The forecast snow has arrived three hours early already the garden is covered, the paths and roads are beginning to get a fair dusting of it too.
I dashed out in my fetching brown bear outfit [dressing gown] to top up the bird feeders and haul a large bag of compost to the back door. Colin is doing his intrepid explorer role in-between chasing snowflakes. I'm hoping he comes in soon as wet cat smells horrible!
Doesn't look like I'll be going anywhere so I'm going to do a Mrs PG and Mrs B list:- Pot up some seedlings and cuttings [that's why I moved the compost to the back door]
- Housework - hoover, clean floors and air the duster
- Make some bread
- Declutter at least 15 items
I have plenty of food in the house. Yesterday I made a casserole base from butternut squash. There is enough for a chilli, veggie shepherds pie and a portion with dumplings. Plenty of veg for soup and luckily I bought the milk yesterday, ah yes, the milk......:o
I hover around the greenfingers board and someone said Lidl had some perennials on offer, very cheap. Luckily I don't have a Lidl near me, so no temptation. However, there is a Lidl very near the doctors. Remember I had to go and collect my tablets? Oh thinks I, I'll pop in Lidl and pick up the milk I need and a six pack of tiny perennials and a dark red dahlia and a chocolate bar....:o:o
The heating is on until I get dressed. I'll turn it off for a while whilst I work. Doubtless it will be back on later until it's time to wrestle the throw from Colin again.Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30
