    I am sure they will but best have a back up plan


    I only ordered another 5 I love them. Certain styles are so smart for work No ironing and a great price I have a couple that lovely when I am standing but seem to have too much material at the back when I am sitting
    Both dresses lovely. I thought you were after something in a skater style?
    Depends on how much you want to spend on shoes and if you will get much wear out of them but given the current weather I would go for a navy court shoe preferably leather. I know m and s had some lovley ones.
    If you go for sandals then I would probably go for white.

    Did anyone else get the T trial for white sandals? Not my style but quite capable of writing a review from just looking at them.
    If you are a size 6 1/2 and would like a sandal with lowish wedge heel in white please let me know as I have this brand new pair to recycle.

    You must have a very good memory, I love skater dresses and have a couple of them. I never go clothes shopping in stores so I have been out of my comfort zone going into House of Fraser, Debenhams etc.
    Last time I needed to get dressed up was 2004, when Principles was around, absolutely loved that shop, used to spend a fortune in there.
    I am actually size 6 1/2 , have you a pic of the sandals.
    Thinking of wearing a medium heel in navy, another shopping trip tomorrow:eek:

    In a very large store, £7 Sel and £7 scan so looks like medium stores are changing range to drop the 18 pack Andrex Gentle Clean.

    Wasted journey - lots of stock but £7 :(

    Evening

    Bubbs you really are an angel and very kind :A:D

    Just come in from the garden , I will be so glad when it is done, I have used muscles I didn't even know I had:rotfl:

    Got me thinking about lady shopper and how she got on today :)

    She definitely is an angel. :A

    Thanks for thinking of me. Garden update is: She came round with her landscaper. He agreed with everything I said, and told her straight it was all rubbish and basically needed ripping out and starting again. Apparently the person who did the work is no longer working for her!

    She did try and pass the buck on to him which annoyed me, and claimed she had no idea how bad it was (despite the pictures I sent and her wife seeing it). I remained polite but did at one point tell her she was overseeing it, yet I hadn't seen her, which she acknowledged and apologised for.

    She was very very nice, probably because my mother in law was there, but didn't apologise for all the stuff she sent me on facebook which annoyed me (but didn't tell her of course).

    They were here quite a long time, she totally accepted she needed to rectify the problem, and I told her I wanted to put her proposals to me in writing, which she agreed to.

    So, we'll see.

    I think she will not be a happy bunny, whether I allow her landscaper to do the work or go via small claims its going to cost an awful lot of money to put right, and I think she came to that realisation this afternoon.

    Snap, thinking of you.

    qoc, sorry to hear about the situation with the baby, well done on getting so much stuff together for them.

    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.
