I recently received some dungarees from Tesco for me to test and review.
They were very comfy, however I hit myself on the head with the metal bit in trying to fling it over my head, and also managed to drop one strap down the loo as I was sitting down !!
My daughter reckoned only 4 year olds should wear them, so although I wore them for the requisite 3 weeks to test them and actually enjoyed it, they have remained in my wardrobe since then.4 -
I did 1/2 an hours weeding in front garden & am now paying for it.
Wish someone would make my tea for me!
