    I originally wrote (as one of the obvious inappropriate answers) "it's too big for your bum", then realised that, to be really inappropriate, it should have said "too small". It's a joke and the joke is that it is a play on the response that a person with Asperger's might give to such a question, but is not the response that I am giving. At the risk of continuing to explain the obvious, if someone, hypothetically in a hypothetical situation, were to say a dress was too small for someone's bum, it would mean the person had a large bum and therefore obviously more inappropriate and insulting! Hence why it was chosen as the "wrong answer", as an inappropriate response - and I was completely joking about it. Don't worry - if I had meant it, I wouldn't have crossed it out!

    Having confused everyone, I wasn't making any comment, negative or positive, about anyone's bum there - I was saying cjj you look nice in the dress. Which you do.

    The dress looks fine to me - if it fits you, it isn't too young for you at all. As long as the dress fits, it seems fine! Go ahead.

    Also, I remember that I am looking at the dress in detail here (having been encouraged to assess something by being asked my opinion about it) - but I doubt that many people around you in RL when you wore it would look at it in that depth. We are so often our own worst critics - no-one else around us ever criticises our choices more than ourselves! So, :o:oif there were any minor imperfections - and I can't see any:), even on my detailed examination of the photo of the dress:):), then :oI doubt that anyone around would see them anyway:o:o. I shouldn't have said!:rotfl::rotfl: But, no, I think it's perhaps a more useful response, if that's what you want. I think the dress is absolutely fine - looks good to me. I think you are getting a bit like me - looking at something in detail, trying to find fault. Sometimes, need to step back (literally) and take a look at it from the 'bigger picture' - just how people generally around you would see it and, from that, where we stop getting caught up in detail and take an "in the round" approach, it's absolutely fine. Anyway, on either level, detail or no detail, it's a very nice dress. If it's comfortable to wear, go with it! I like the colours.

    Anyway, even if it were "too young" for you, it would make you look young:kisses3:. Which you are - you're still a spring chicken in many aspects, certainly not old at 43 at all!

    Ladies... In future we need to add a note to the bottom of any dress shots we show. 'No response from Savvy necessary thank you very much!' It worries him too much and we may not get the reply we were looking for! Ha ha I've been laughing so much this morning.

    In fact, to be precise, it needs 11+ to trigger the glitch. So, not 11 precise at all - since, I believe, 12 for example would also work. I'm unrivalled in the pedantry stakes!(:rotfl:)

    However, I would only ever get 11 and not 12 (or even more than that:eek:) - as I see absolutely no need to buy more than necessary or thereby waste more money like that!* I turn livid if I hear of people buying 12, as 11+ suggests/includes the possibility of! Totally unnecessary - no need. Buy just 11.:cool::D It needs 11+, but buy just 11. Make it an 11 glitch rather than an 11+ glitch please!:rotfl:

    *It's going to get nothing extra back, whilst paying the cost of each extra one over and above 11. Totally unnecessary in my view for that reason!

    Good morning

    I don't agree with this savvy:rotfl:

    If for example there was 15 in the store and it was something useful like the fairy and the return on apg was larger than the total spend,it makes sense to me to buy all of them.You would get 10 for better than free and 5 at reduced cost.
    Also when using the apg there maybe less chance of it being questioned.

    It also makes sense to me if doing a 11+that was going to produce a £14 or £15 apg to try and reduce this by buying items that are cheaper in sada to reduce the apg to a level that would be easier to use.
