Excellent news on the vaccine, at least, I'm really glad to hear it. I've had a few minor side effects, which I've always had at one-off vaccinations, completely normal-for-me. Hope it's an easy trip to get there.2023: the year I get to buy a car3

milann said:Funny you should say about bobbly stuff from M&S. Dh got a jumper for his birthday in November didn’t wear it until Christmas Day and it’s gone really fluffy....even before it was washed 😲 My cardigans I had for my birthday- one the button fell off leaving a hole on its the 2nd wear and I hadn’t been out of the house or washed and the other one is just a mass of bobbles. The quality is no where near the same. Annnd don’t get me going on bras....I’ve worn the same styles for years - tried to find them on line to order some annnnnndddddd they’ve discontinued them 😲😲😲😲 I’m in shock 😂😂😂😂😂 I can’t order more without trying them on - so I’m waiting until the shops open. Can’t be doing with the faff of sending them back if they don’t do the job 😉 Plus the wires seem to come out so easily. Nearly speared myself a while ago 😲😲😲
