to think I witnessed a woman in Morrisons today that the majority of you would judge?

It was about 11:30ish and she was wearing a bright pink onesie ... tucked inside a pair of Uggs.

This also isn't even a local Morrisons, it was in a retail park not that close to a residential area, so it's not like she'd just popped in to buy some milk.

Lord knows what was in her trolley Wink

As I understand it some people have 'posh' pyjamas for outdoor use (I have relatives in Carlisle which seems to have adopted the trend most enthusiastically)

I see your onesie wearer and raise you a woman in pj's, slippers and dressing gown at 2.30 this afternoon parked blocking one lane of a 2 lane road using a metal shovel to pick horse shit up and put it in a pink Hello Kitty bin which she then put in her footwell before driving off.

I kid you not! DH and I sat waiting to pass her looking like this Confused at each other.

I was walking down the street the other day when I saw a cyclist wearing a flesh coloured unitard. I did the massivest double take- he really did look naked.
I saw him again from the other side and there was a logo thing on his unitard- said something about nearly naked cyclist.
Copout.

Earlier in the week we were in the petrol station and saw a whole family in pyjamas. The Mum got out and filled The car up. She sent her teenage daughter in to pay. The daughter was even barefoot.

MechanicalTheatre · 03/03/2013 18:29

I know I'm old, because this baffles me.

As does pyjamas.

Sigh.

VodkaJelly · 03/03/2013 18:30

My DC is 12 and has a onsie for lazing around the house in. Never in a million years would he go out in it, if somebody knocks on the front door he bolts up the stairs incase somebody outside the family should glimpse him in it.

And no photos allowed either just incase we show them to someone, he would die of shame.

Tallgiraffe · 03/03/2013 18:32

We saw a woman in a dalmatian onesie in a service station on the M6 recently. DH had never seen one before, his face kept me chuckling the rest of the journey!

Oh and curlers are heading East - can now be spotted in Manchester too Confused

Piffpaffpoff · 03/03/2013 18:34

anon we saw a whole 'sponsored cycle' of cyclists wearing those naked suits. Was most disturbing when we passed the first two, but by about the fifth we had thankfullyworked out that they were indeed actually wearing clothes.

andubelievedthat · 03/03/2013 18:35

It was always my intention to make the boiler suit a fashion trend. A dream, if you will.

Now, that will never be, because people will just think it's a onesie.

peppertree · 03/03/2013 18:42

Good on her i say!

PenelopePisstop · 03/03/2013 18:43

Saw a woman in a wedding dress in Morrisons a couple of years ago. They run out of booze at the wedding barbie and they just popped in for supplies!

My friend and I were gobsmacked. Ther are always plenty of women and girls in there in their jamas, it is Rochdale though Sad

deemented · 03/03/2013 18:48

I make my kids change into onesies after swimming lessons. Much easier than struggling back into proper clothes.

zlist · 03/03/2013 18:48

The older I get the less I judge, so I would have been more likely to be impressed by her confidence to wear it.

As for judging shopping trolleys - last time I went to Morrisons I bought two pizzas, 24 cans of carbonated drink and 32 bars of chocolate. Nothing else.

I usually shop at Waitrose, I have two riverford boxes delivered each week, only buy meat from the butcher, bake my own wholemeal bread...not sure what my Morrisons trolley would have told you other than what I happened to be buying that day in that particular shop.
