    Do try and find the time to try on the rest so then you can do any returns when collecting the forgotten one.

    I strapped on the big-girl pants and called M&S - replacement bra will be in store to collect tomorrow. Now just need to get round to trying on the rest 😳!
    I hate phoning people nowadays, too - but sometimes it is worth it for a quicker resolution:)

    In related news, did you know that if you do build a bunker in your garden you then have to sell the bunker with a house attached to it, rather than selling the house with a bunker in the garden? >_<
