Crikey @Davethecat - what an awful time 
. I can't believe people would do that, and without any warning re peanuts. I thought people were more sensible these days. You must all have been so scared - but glad your DS is OK. Hurrah for the NHS, is what I say...
@soyyo - OMG those slippers look amazing. They are definitely going on my Christmas list (I think I've spent November's clothes budget already...). And I love the scarf too, but know what you mean - it is so big you feel you're wrapping a blanket around your face (not necessarily a bad thing for warmth, but hard to do in more than one way...). I have to say, if you hadn't have said they were pyjamas I wouldn't have twigged - but there are loads of clothes around that do have that pyjama vibe aaaarrrgh (yours are much less pyjama-y than those last two, I reckon, though probably the fabric is a giveaway!). They go well with the jumper, anyway
- which I think is fine as a small.
@ella - I do love the look of that Boden one, and its pretty good value for wool, with the discount. I tried it a while back, though and found the neck, though wider than a "normal" roll neck, wasn't really slouchy. It works on the models with their sylph-like necks, but it just made my neck look the same width as my head, which wasn't good. It was also a bit shorter than I wanted, but that did make it look "smarter".
@len - is it this one? That actually looks really nice. I always forget about peacocks, though there is one in our local shopping centre. I may have to pop there to have a browse, as they seem to have some nice stuff, glancing at the website.
@finger - I love that pink jacket. It's great when you reluctantly turn something down, and then it crops up again cheap as chips... Like the universe is enabling you..
