Oh sleep that's terrible!! Sad

Which parka carangh ?

queen, I have no knowledge about Spain, but can help with South of France, Smile

liberty your dd party sounds like a winner,

linus any updates on your sweater ?

maradesbois · 05/01/2015 14:53

Sleep oh no, that's so shit. Thanks for you. As others have said even if nothing irreplaceable has gone it's the fact that someone has invaded your home which should be a haven. We have ADT alarm linked to police station and, without wanting to tempt fate, do think it acts as a deterrent.

QueenC holiday planning, how fabulous. On iPad go into settings-safari-clear cookies & data.

Flamingo I could never do a bare ankle in winter, shivering at the thought.

LinusDKD · 05/01/2015 15:06

santa my jumper 'has left the sorting facility' just in time for it to be delivered ..... when I'm not home. Sad

It'd better be worth the wait and expense

Fedupnagging · 05/01/2015 15:06

Flowers for you Sleep, that is a pretty awful thing to happen - massive invasion of your privacy. Hope you are ok?

Queen, lovely dress so hope it's a keeper.

So the petty's arrived earlier and I love them. Can see why you all have a pair! One teeny tiny minus point is that width wise, they are a little snug on my fat feet. As they are leather, they will give a bit no way are they being returned

LinusDKD · 05/01/2015 15:09

Oh and this is the jacket I was contemplating but I'm not sure about the fabric composition and the colour (I might have mentioned I am very fussy about my reds)

Cranagh · 05/01/2015 15:45

Lovely dress, QueenC.

Haven't decided yet, Santa! Might wait until spring and see what comes out.

Burberry bag arrived in a huge box, love the bag and the DDs have turned the box into a boat. Everyone's happy.

Cranagh · 05/01/2015 15:46

I like the shape of the jacket, Linus, though not sure about that shade of red.

Karbea · 05/01/2015 15:53

sleep that's horrible! how are you?
I've shrunk one of dhs jumpers today :/
Back from botox.

libertychick · 05/01/2015 16:41

Good news on the bag cranagh. I love that the box is a boat!

Linus on my phone that red is quite vivid! How annoying about your jumper delivery.

shopafrolic · 05/01/2015 16:52

Can I just say whoever styled that jacket on the website needs to be shot Linus!?! Shock

Slightly random question but do any of you have an Ocado Smart Pass? If so, what do you currently pay per month please?

Linus I tried that jacket on in black in Selfridges last week. I didn't think it was anything special. Looks better on the website than it does IRL, was very thin and didn't seem as well cut as it does there.

AmberNectarine · 05/01/2015 16:55

Oh have just seen on the model. Actually it looked about as rubbish as that.

LinusDKD · 05/01/2015 17:03

Lol amber

Is it the Uggs that bother you shop?

I think I'll pass as it's really not my kind of red.

LinusDKD · 05/01/2015 17:04

Glad you finally got your bag Cranagh! It is gorgeous!

shopafrolic · 05/01/2015 17:40

Cranagh I missed that! How lovely. Does it smell amazing!? weirdo that I am

Shop I did the annual payment (£99.99) and, as I have one or sometimes two deliveries per week, feel I get my money's worth. I did try Waitrose's delivery (which was free) but their choice of delivery times wasn't as good and there were lots of items oos.

Sorry to hear tales of shrunken cashmere. My old washing machine worked well on the delicates cycle but it has just died. I hope the new one is just as good!

Love the tale of your bag and box cranagh.

Agree that you can do better with the jacket linus.

Topazandpearl · 05/01/2015 17:45

PS when I first joined Smart Pass, I got it for £49.99 as an introductory offer.

Fedupnagging · 05/01/2015 17:54

The style looks nice Linus but that's about it by the sounds of things. Agree, the styling is shocking - looks the model forgot to take her slippers off!

Cranagh, is your bag the blue one linked recently?

Karbea, shame we can't have before and after pics. Grin Does it hurt?

Stokey · 05/01/2015 18:10

I think we paid around £40 Shop for 6 months but maybe that was an introductory offer. We have a weekly delivery so would spend at least £20 otherwise. But it's limited to Tuesday- Thursday.

Did you think you may be a winter Linus? The red looks very tomatoey rather than blue tinged, which is better for winters.

Stokey · 05/01/2015 18:11

Sorry £20 a month otherwise... Need to engage brain before posting!

Cranagh · 05/01/2015 18:11

Yes, Fedup, that's the one. It smells divine, Shop!

I signed up to Ocado when they had the introductory offer. I found Waitrose delivery bad, same as Topaz.

Topazandpearl · 05/01/2015 18:18

Meant to say, so sorry to hear about your burglary Sleep Flowers

shopafrolic · 05/01/2015 18:23

Thanks all - I was paying £6.99 per month but they've just upped it to £9.99
