Shopping spree!

Something I don't do often - my shopping is usually limited to the boring 'housekeeping' type - but I was given some vouchers at Christmas time and friends have been kind enough to give me money for my birthday - so - had a lovely time in town today.

Bought - a mulberry coloured velvet evening skirt, a black beaded blouse - very "House of Elliot" - and some black lacy undies. Needed all of those for night out on Friday - as I had absolutely nothing to wear (Ha Ha Ha )

We had lunch at a carvery - roast beef, yorkshire pud, roast potatoes, roast parsnips, carrots, cauliflower cheese and a large glass of merlot. Delicious !!
Going to have a cup of tea and a 'trying on' session - that should make the cats laugh!

Re: Shopping spree!

Velvet is such a lovely choice this time of year.

As for the lace, one should always make sure the fine china is elegantly stored, as my grandmother used to say .

Certainly a better day that being up all night ironing with a stomach ache. Glad to hear it!

Re: Shopping spree!

Yes, ST, it sounds like you had a perfect day! The meal sounded much nicer than the French one! Your new clothes sound lovely too!!


I hate clothes shopping as everything l try on looks awful! Then l catch a glimpse of myself in those three way mirrors and shout, ‘Look at that stomach...and that nose seems to be getting longer, you old woman’!)

Disgusted at the sight of myself, l quickly take the item of clothing off, smile sweetly at the sales assistant and say, ‘They didn’t suit’!
I get home and l don’t look as bad in the mirrors here!

Why do shop mirrors lie? It’s cruel!
