1100?

groats?

AgentZigzag Fri 03-Feb-12 21:41:25

Course not.

Have you got a link to the hideous item?

wisecamel Fri 03-Feb-12 21:41:39

Don't get blood on the satchel and you might be able to return it once you've done the deed. An exchange at least, if not a refund.

imgoingtokilldh Fri 03-Feb-12 21:47:12

here is the hideous item.

oh dh has just said ot's not a satchal it's a document bag, wtf.

Buy a similar looking cheapo one and have your children trash it/ dog rip it to pieces/ cut it up throw it in the bin and all over the kitchen table. Then wait for him to enter the house and just look at him silently.

Please?

it is a bit gay...

ISayHolmes Fri 03-Feb-12 21:48:30

Also that is HIDEOUS. My daughter wouldn't even have one of those, and she loves jewels and glitter and tacky stuff.

Any bloke I worked with would have the piss taken out of him for weeks if he turned up with that.

ImpatientOne Fri 03-Feb-12 21:49:14

I'd say you are owed a new handbag.

trixymalixy Fri 03-Feb-12 21:49:47

Kladdkaka Fri 03-Feb-12 21:49:48

maybenow Fri 03-Feb-12 21:49:49

countessbabycham Fri 03-Feb-12 21:50:07

mrsmaltesers Fri 03-Feb-12 21:50:07

Are you married to john barrowman?

AgentZigzag Fri 03-Feb-12 21:50:11

Bloody hell, that's not a good look.

Have you had your eye on anything you thought was out of your price range OP?

stressheaderic Fri 03-Feb-12 21:50:14

Tis a ladies bag, no?

Kayzr Fri 03-Feb-12 21:50:14

It's horrible. What a waste of lots of money.

I would like to visit this planet where that is considered a briefcase. And worth £1100.

pooka Fri 03-Feb-12 21:50:28

Sorry....

That's his work bag?

Not sure whether the link is working - the monstrosity linked to is covered in crystals/shit. Are you seriously saying that that is the satchel he chose for himself as a work bag?

rhondajean Fri 03-Feb-12 21:50:36

On I loaths Prada and that's a particularly awful example.

Prada is nylon crap carried by gullible Japanese tourists.

Expect someone to come along and accuse you of stealth boasting in a minute though.

pooka Fri 03-Feb-12 21:51:01

PMSL @ John Barrowman! grin

imgoingtokilldh Fri 03-Feb-12 21:51:04

it is honestly the most hideous thing i have ever seen.

MissVerinder Fri 03-Feb-12 21:51:33

squeaky not one of my self respecting gay friends would be seen dead carrying that!

I think my 3yo might use it for her crayons though.
