Someone on tax credits?

I already have a wardrobe full of Boden and I feel guilty.

So AIBU?

Oh the angst...

lisad123wantsherquoteinDM · 15/02/2010 11:45

give it to me , i have no boden in my wardrobe

Do they do jeans? I finally put my fingers through the very threadbare only pair that fit me. Charity shops seem to have nothing for me...you can keep the invite and send me jeans if you like SD . I mean, I'd love the invite, but it's the clothing thing again... got to go on diet!

Would it be really tasteless for me go request that those of you on tax credits tell me what's in your wardrobe, in Haiku? And I'll get George, the CEO, of AB Foods (they own Primark for those of you who don't track your ISA or Trust Fund closely) to judge which is the cheapest look.

And I'll throw in a bottle of Daddies Sauce for the Haiku that describes the outfit with the heaviest carbon footprint.

Leggins?!!!!!! I'd be arrested and my children taken from me! NO! no leggings!

solo · 15/02/2010 12:14

And I don't wear leggings either!

I'm get working tax credits.
There are great charity shops near me, so I'm going out to lunch in a mo, wearing Jasper Conran jeans and a Save the Queen top (less than £10 for the pair, brand new), with some really nice Lilley and Skinner shoes, still had the labels in and I think were £5.
If I find Boden I EBay it.

SD

You are a gift to journalism.

lisad123wantsherquoteinDM · 15/02/2010 12:23

oh im not on benifits, but even with me working and dh working FT, i still cant afford boden

Fluffyone · 15/02/2010 12:25

Haiku... oh dear

Save the Queen Jumper
bringing me much happiness
clothing my body

duchesse · 15/02/2010 12:27

's recycling innit? And therefore also eco-friendly.

codslovechild · 15/02/2010 12:28

All this haiku business and begging is getting a bit on my tits.

Its a party
Full of crap biscuits and journos

Get a fucking grip people

NFI · 15/02/2010 12:29

And my fave Uggs (OK, fake)
White puffa jacket

lisad123wantsherquoteinDM · 15/02/2010 12:30

SexistDinner · 15/02/2010 12:30

In mine is my child

as real life sucks

Fluffyone · 15/02/2010 12:35

Pretendy Impoverished, I like that.

Boco · 15/02/2010 12:37

Do you think mn will lead the winners around the google factory and one by one they'll all be sucked up pipes / blown up / drowned/ turned into a blueberry, until the last and poorest and worthiest is left and she will get to take over from Justine and be given all the boden in all the world?

LedodgyChristmasjumper · 15/02/2010 12:39

Haha yes Boco and I can't wait to meet the umpa lumpas...

NFI · 15/02/2010 12:40

Charlotte and the Boden Factory? followed by Charlotte and the Great Sassy Skirt?

SexistDinner · 15/02/2010 12:40

Knees sag in leggings
Even when washed: that's seldom
And they reek of fags

I was thinkng more something like that, not that I want to put ideas into your heads.

You are just advertising the fact that you were invited.

why was I not invited?

SexistDinner · 15/02/2010 12:51

Boco

btw Boco have you received an invitation? Have you been asked to walk round wearing artist's smock and doing little sketches of the guests. eh
Ed miliband arriving in a no shit 4x4?
David Cameron with an oatcake face?
Garry Lace dressed in nothing but a billboard man carrying the slogan "advertising men are v v silly sometimes"?
