Ok, so I'm at work at the moment. Just noticed that the armpit of my top has a split along the seam!!! Exposing about 2 inches of my arm/arm pit...Blush
Usually I have a tiny sewing kit in my bag for just such an occassion but dammit dammit dammit I have left it at home...Angry
Am I doomed to spend the rest of the day with my left arm clamped to my side in the manner of those old deodorant adverts....????

Clutch the stapler under your arm, since that is going to be clamped to your side hiding the rip anyway Grin

out and proud - staple at your desk and keep going - what would Shackleton say?
