Wanky Toast emails ENOUGH

This woman seems to be intending to boil herself.

Has anyone else found these delightful daily missives to be nothing but a source of amusement?

I've been to a lodge in NZ with a bath tub with a fire underneath, somewhere in Akaroa I think, I didn't use it but others have while I was there.
Their catalogues always smell funny

I am so subscribing now.

I am a bit of a sucker for the lifestyle stuff. I adore HUSH for example, although DH pointed out that if a dress makes a stick thin model look like a sack of rocks then it will not do much for 5ft 1 inch 12 stone me.

I just keep the stuff I buy from them in the cupboard to take out and admire occasionally.

Slightly off-topic, but do you get any useful discount codes if you subscribe to their emails. My Inbox is heaving with crap and I am only really interested in adding more crap if there's a cash discount on offer for subscribers from time to time.

I don't get discount codes often but their sales are usually good. I never buy anything full price there.

If I put candles on the floor under my bath, would it be the same?

I'm starting to consider these emails more than wanky. They are downright irrssponsible.

Fireman: what caused you to put lighted candles under your bath Mrs Knitter?

Mrs Knitter: well I saw it on a Toast email. So I thought it would be cool, spartan and trendy.

Fireman: Yes, of course, we must all duly follow the lifestyle emails. I'll waive the fee.

Walks away reeling up hose and muttering about hipsters

wrt discounts no not cash. You get a free postage one now and then.

Archive sales are epic but we haven't had one recently. I think they did it to death last year and have nothing left. I got two jumpers in this summer's ordinary sale and they were ridiculous and went straight back.

They are v good at refunding postage and so on though.

I have stayed in a hikers camping spot that provided such a bath under the stars....was much too self conscious to give it a go though, but it sounded lovely after a 10 mile hike.
Agree though that toast are very wanky, and the models look awful in lots of their stuff but admit to having quite a few of their clothes, just a few bits carefully chosen every year.

Jeez a bath under the stars heated by candles??? Lovely my eye. Tell me where in the British Isles you would find a remote enough spot with running water (or an un-manky stream/river/lake/water source close by, and where you won't have every Tom Dick and Harry stopping and greeting you and then sending armies of friends by, to look at the daft arse of a woman taking a bath heated by candle power in a field.

Hot bath, locked door, endless supply of hot water, book. Now that's erm, ahem, dreamy.

There are plenty of place in Scotland remote enough.

Actually she probably wouldn't call it Matey....

"écume de la jaunty marin porter le chapeau" perhaps?

Is just be happy with a bath that I didn't have to clean every time I want to use it.

And there are remote parts of scotland but they are remote because:
A) it rains all the time
B) it's fucking freezing

We had 20C today and sun was out in the afternoon, plenty warm for a bath outside. I've been in hot springs while it was snowing which was nice, I wouldn't mind a bath in the rain.

Pulling the plug would just leave a big soapy mud lake around it though...in which you'd be slipping around in your flip flops

This may out me but I was once fortunate enough to go naked swimming, in the rain, in Brian Blessed's ornamental pond with my French friend Katrin.

It were muddy

Brian wasn't watching AFAIK

I have two beautiful Toast dressing gowns which I have never worn because they are dry clean only, which is stupidness itself for dressing gowns. Now, I just admire them in the catalogue.

Has anyone else ever noticed that the Toast catalogues smell, well, a bit odd?

LOL!!!!!

Oh yes the catalogues are whiffy. They have dimpled cardboard along the edges though which Il ike to run my fingers along and feel important

Oh good, not just me then.

I've just been thinking about the dressing gowns and I reckon I had some idea I'd waft mysteriously around the house in a linen nightie with one of the gowns draped artfully around me. .

I have one toast dress I love. Unfortunately I don't have the requisite farmhouse in a private wood for an outdoor cooking pot fire-heated bath

like cannibal movies from t'olden days

Stephanie my brain now has the self created ear worm of Brian Blessed shouting "GET OUT OF MY FUCKING POND!"

I don't think Brian Blessed would be upset about two naked ladies in his ornamental pond.
