    Good Morning :wave:

    Been reading thread about elite using leather bags arnt these rather heavy before anything is put in them ?

    Unlike Kipling ones which are light ;)

    Also you wouldn't lose things with a Kipling because they could have there own pocket :cool:

    Well after my 120 on shopprize yesterday on bonus :) I only got 60 today :mad:

    Will be going mums in about 30 mins.

    Hello tweets:hello::hello:

    You are right about leather handbags. Mine weighs a tonne when it's empty. I decided that I can't buy one on line . I need to see it and double check everything fits.

    I've always been lucky at TK Maxx in the past so I'll have a look there at the weekend.

    You are also right about lots of pockets too...one preferably on the outside of the bag where I can keep my car keys and phone.

    It's ages since I treated myself....looking forward to the weekend now:)
