ooh lucky you never for being a Toast friend..but do I realy need to spend more ?..and now i have checked that the Anda print Dhuggie is not in the sale ( I really do like that) I have also closed the Toast site. (but i will be tempted if it does go i the sale)

I have also just paid off my recent purchases on my CC and really cannot afford anymore than I have already on order ..

Not I am keeping the M in the trousers now and the rest (not the jumper) has gone back anyway now. They are v lightweight fabric and loose , but I am only planning on wearing them as loungewear and as they are big and long they should be good mossie protection ..and I need that,sadly as mossies just love me. I hate covering myself up in the evenings on holiday, but these are so lightweight they should be fine (and I hate covering myself in Deet etc etc even more !!)

never! No, I'm not a friend, but I have only relatively recently ordered from them, and never kept anything at full price. Only kept stuff from the sale, or with a referral discount (from laska !) so I'm obviously not that friendly to them. Though now there is a shop in Edinburgh (not visited yet) I may be more tempted. That leaf print top is gorgeous, but yy, still pricey.

The trousers sound perfect for that, and those with the top would be fab for lounging laska. Good call!

Laska trousers are lovely as is the jumper.
never dress is really pretty.
Cherries such a shame you have to have more surgery, but I think by the sounds of it won’t be as long & complicated as previous & I can imagine the pain & discomfort with your arm etc is not pleasant & could get worse, yy waiting till after your holiday.

Back to Earth with a big bump today
Thanks for the sympathy re grown DC and messiness. I am a bit anal about washing floors, etc and cleaner lady turned up today (actually she wasn’t well last week and so I berated the boys without the full story ) and peace at home is restored with a cleaner home. My DC are both good cooks so it’s probably me and my high standards...

I’m off to Pilates shortly. I will show you my buys when I get a chance but a lot of work to catch up with I’m barely able to keep up with you all.

Just to say @Laska2Meryls that I adore the jumper and glad you’re keeping! Ditto what @neveradullmoment99 said regarding trousers and matching jacket so I’m glad you’ve reordered the jacket in S. together they’re really special. Big thumbs up! Looks fabulous!

@never the Seasalt dress is super lovely too!

I’m not looking at any sales atm

@ilovecherries sorry about the adhesions but if I were you I’d look on the bright side: even smaller boobs and will be perfect once they correct the cosmetics. Still I know you’d rather not deal with more surgery and anaesthetic so as it’s been quite a difficult journey so far. Don’t give up now!

@len you must be getting excited now!! And wishing you a sunny relaxing time in Ibiza 😎

@NotAnActualSheep thanks for your sympathy!

Also hi to everyone else including the lovely new posters! Stay! The more the merrier and you can be as sporadic as you like posting. Always welcome

@Ninkaninus I got my gold Gabor wedges in post while I was away and love! Do you like yours?

Love your toast haul, Laska. And that sea salt dress looks fab, never

Ok finding a bit of my holiday mojo, really must stop be a curmudgeon.
Just about to go up & cull the suitcase, as did my usual & got over excited by pretty summer tops/shorts/sandals.
Happy shopping everyone 😘

Yay Len are you off tomorrow?

Nice haul laska
Never like the dress - I have a very similar Seasalt one which is a dark denim colour, I love the pockets. Looks great on you.

Have a wonderful holiday len. We need sun pictures!

Yes silly o’clock flight tomorrow morning, just debating now if to put travel kettle in the case, I know if I don’t will be annoyed at myself at not having a cuppa when I wake up in the mornings (first world problem I know) but could be at the expense of pretty sandals!🤔

er...pretty sandals all the way! Enjoy your holiday. Just now really of you.

How long are you away for @dontcallmelen?

Get away from the fecking rain!

Thanks everyone, only for a week as we are going with dd,sil & dgd to Menorca next month (get me the jet setter😂)
Must admit will be nice to have a bit sun on the bones, I have been really aching the week or so.🏝💃

No, Tea ..Len ..As in one of Peggy Woolley's immortal iines (which Dh and I still quote often) "People must have access to tea at all times" ..You can buy lovely sandals out there!

I am cold.. Am wearing Amies , socks, vest top T shirt and new Toast merino wool jumper.. Am determined not to put the heating on,, its Effing June! ..I may have to go to bed..

Evening all, MN has been so glitchy!
Loving all the new clobber! That jumper is gorgeous @Laska I love an unusual knit, the design & colours are fab. Kimono and trousers look so cool too.
That eBay top @ella! Stunning!
Great toast haul @ never. I've never bought from toast might have to gave a look.
@cherries well I'm sorry you were tight and need a further op. Of course it will be worth it but yet another thing for you to go tend with. Any luck on the graduation outfit? Have you looked at monsoon ( their sale is usually good for 50% off)
No purchase here, still not tried on my new skirt & top from H&M. Lazy bum!
Really really had enough of this bloody weather

I could wrap a pashmina around my shoulders.. I suppose..

Well I was making dinner for my ds who has come up and I did wonder if I should change of my dress incase of stain issue but no, I decided an apron would do only to take it off, eat my dinner and stain it It is now in the machine.

@twosoups1972 oh yes, Jonelle - their current offerings are certainly very different!

@Laska2Meryls I bet the dress is beautiful in pale blue. What I really wanted was the Hush greek widow dress but when I tried it on it was just too short on me, but this one was fine.

@dontcallmelen take the kettle! You can always bung some sandals in your hand luggage.

Cold here as well, I succumbed & put the heating on.
Yeahy good news, kettle went in Dh’s case so pretty sandals in mine & room for more should I stumble across some whilst having a trawl of Spanish shops win win.

Am I the only one having problems with mumsnet last few days? All the threads I'm on are disappearing from my feed

Ella think quite a few are, especially those on the app/phone I’m on an iPad & the only problems I have had is the disappearing photos.
But I’m a Luddite so I could be making that up & it’s not the case.

how annoying @neveradullmoment99
I don’t know what’s up with MN either if I try just the @name your full user name comes up and I can’t shorten it anymore!

I’ve had the hearing on almost non stop since returning from Spain last night. Still wearing my Pilates gear for today which was Hush starry leggings with long grey vest and v neck black wide top. At home so swapped the trainers for my furry Hush winter slippers.
I’m still cold! I don’t like it!

@GinandGingerBeer how’s the CG method going? I discovered a new shop that opened in our town in Spain only doing obscure eco friendly and incredibly reasonably priced cosmetics. Like an Aladdin’s cave of deliciousness natural products! Bought a really good German hair mask (silicone free no other nasties) for 4Euro but it was a huge tub so it’s stayed behind till the next visit and can’t quite remember the name (something with Oma...). I’m like you I did order a dress before I left 🤫 and still haven’t opened it mainly cause I’m still recovering from the shock of returning to U.K. last night to this dreadful weather (not to mention the news 😱) plus work today and just couldn’t find the time (tired now)

@len (somehow I can still shorten your name! ) have a Fab time! Mini kettle sounds wise
