    I'm envious of anyone who has ever worn heels...I love them and would like to but at 5 10 I have always felt too tall so stick to flats xxx

    :) I feel incredibly dangerous in heels, I'm 5 10' also, but so long-legged that heels bring my centre of gravity up so high that I feel one breeze and I'll go over like a pine tree in a windstorm. It's like I'm stiltwalking.:rotfl:

    Haven't bought anything much in the chazzers this month except a Golunski leather wallet, german brand, this style seems to sell in the UK for about £30, I paid £3.50.

    Also, today I got a Dun elm brand Eqyptian cotton bath sheet, very nice condition, for £1. It isn't for me, it's for the mothership, I rang her from the shop to see if she wanted it, she said yes, she has several on their way out so this will be a welcome replacement.

    I am a complete and utter numpty....will I ever learn!!!?? :mad:

    Was having a browse in the community shop this afty - they have boxes of odds & ends outside and I spotted a pack of 5 x Ikea coat storage covers, b/n for 50p. ( I like to store my winter coats in them to hopefully keep the moths away.) One of the covers had been taken out of the bag so I carefully and diligently folded it up and placed it back in the packet and then decided I would pick it up and purchase it after completing my browsing. You know what's coming don't you!!!? Yep, after having a good look around and going back to pick up my chosen bargain I saw a woman at the till paying for MY coat covers.....how very dare she...aaarrgghh! I am always doing this - praps one day I will learn from my mistakes :(
