So Boden sell there gear in townhalls on selected dates? - didn't realise they did that! Is there much discount?

Things are always a set price, I only really do mini boden unless there's something I really want. Trousers are usually £9, tops £6 or £8, sandals £5, coats (incl duffles) £15!

But you have to be prepared for a huge scrummage - don't even think about taking a pram/buggy - offload DCs for the day/morning/afternoon, and go on your own, having sharpened your elbows specially.

Oh I bet we don't get one down here

I am a recent convert, my sale coat arrived yesterday and is fan tastic

I actually look

groomed

god it sounds horrendous.

i ahte things like that

Where in Surrey? How do you find out what time etc..? I could do with looking a bit more groomed too.

It is horrendous and as JackieNo said, definitely no dc. They start at 10am and you can call Boden for details.

FA, I have always secretly mocked the Boden madness that you see on MN. I was a bit surprised to find myself stalking their online sale before Christmas and buying a gorgeous nut-brown cord trench coat and super-gorgeous leather satchel.

I don't know what came over me.

so it was you wot bought the last satchel, then?

Oooohhhhh.

You weren't after a dark brown one were you? A lovely, soft, capacious and gorgeous one with a little insert just the right size for a packet of Handi-Andi's?

Sorry.

squeeeeeeak!

No, not at all

They normally have 1 in my town. All the posh mums turn up in their 4x4's in their masses.#

Haven't dared venture inside yet.

Oh I luuuurve my leather satchel. ;)
Don't love the fact that I paid full price.

I got a lovely black one....(satchel)

hmmmm Braintree is near me - may see if I can go child free - I am good at dodging elbows

surreymummy they are often at sandown race course

DrNorthener & DarrellRivers, I know they went to Harrogate & Leamington last year but they don't usually do the same place 2 years running, this year will probably be much the same circuit that they did 2 years ago.

You're right samanthar, it is at sandown, have updated the list .

Essex (Braintree) 6 & 7 Feb
Surrey 28 Feb - 1 Mar
Exeter 11 & 12 March
Kettering 29 Apr
Leicester 3 & 4 June
Castle Donnington sometime in Sept.

where in kettering and what time please?

Sorry piglet, didn't take a note of the venue in Kettering but if you check the websites of any of your local conference or exhibition centres you should find it listed under 'whats on' or something. It will start at 10am though - they always do.

oh yes, heard about these. now which of those venues is the most northerly? just out of interest...

i've been to a couple in Chelsea town hall, in the past... they usually send me a postcard a few weeks before.

Does anyone know if there is one due soon in South West / South Wales area please? Need work clothes desperately!

Thanks x

There has also been a Surrey one at the Spectrum in Guildford, although close to me I don't think I could bear it!
