@Ellapaella tbh, i am more used to writing tee as opposed to tea!!! Tea isnt my thing more into coffee!!!
Anway, got two compliments at the optician. The optician said she couldnt believe i was 51 and said i looked at least ten years younger. Then the other lady said my perfume was gorgeous [ It was the woodsmoke one!!] She said it smelt of candyfloss!
Win win today. Pity i have a shitty menopausal headache!!

Ellapaella · 13/09/2019 14:15

You do look fantastic never they are absolutely right!
Sorry you have a headache. I've come home from work early - started to feel shivery and sore and aching all over just before lunch. In bed now feeling pretty rotten. Really hope it's not the start of flu... haven't had my flu jab yet Confused

neveradullmoment99 · 13/09/2019 14:48

Thanks @Ellapaella Feel about 100 today too!
Does anyone find that their message sometimes gets deleted as you type? Its very annoying.
Hope you feel better soon. My dh had a very heavy cold and cough.

twosoups1972 · 13/09/2019 15:02

@never what lovely compliments. Hope the headache clears up soon.

@Ellapaella oh no, you poor thing. Get lots of rest/paracetomol/drinks etc. Hope you feel better soon Flowers

I need a basic black t-shirt and tried the Hush v-neck slub one. It comes up so long in the body! Anyone know where I can get one that's a bit shorter?

Ellapaella · 13/09/2019 15:41

@twosoups1972 Boden do a nice v neck T shirt, they aren't long line. I'll see if I can find a link to the one I mean. Thanks for the well wishes... it's beautiful outside and I'm tucked up in bed shivering..

Shame about the Toast skirt never, I love mine but as I am more of an apple sadly I have to size up to get the fit as the waist is inevitably small for me 😪. I should have clarks Orinoco in a 6 waiting for me at home am hoping that will solve the width prob I had with the 5s.
Its been so lovely here today, have been on mainland, wering my Moritz jeans and coral raw edge linen top. I must have lost some weight ( even though scales dont seem to have changed) as Moritz are now a bit loose on me !!

Laska2Meryls · 13/09/2019 16:55

Clarks Orinoco boots that is , the shiny black ones

neveradullmoment99 · 13/09/2019 17:22

Well ordered some cheap as chips glasses from goggles4u. No idea how they will pan out but at £30 If they are duds its no big deal. They are just to tide me over. It will be interesting to see what they are like. I think they can take anywhere between 7-21 days. They are based in America but also in the UK. I will report back!!

neveradullmoment99 · 13/09/2019 17:25

@Laska, I could have sized down to a 10 and may still do but I really do love my Marks and spencers one. Its a lovely fit on me. Only wish marks did it in a lovely cord. Bit disappointed they haven't done any long A-line skirts this year.

twosoups1972 · 13/09/2019 18:14

Thank you for the Boden link @Ellapaella might give it a try.

theresamaysnecklace · 13/09/2019 18:24

Any new hush codes ladies? Have a basket full...

neveradullmoment99 · 13/09/2019 19:56

Sadly the code expired last weekend. Not sure if they will do another one for a while tbh.

theresamaysnecklace · 13/09/2019 20:25

Ok thanks never

Laska2Meryls · 13/09/2019 20:44

Oh never I feel so fat !! (its ok no worries!) .My toast skirt is a 14!! SadBlush

I can never meet you all now, you will think I am an elephant

Laska2Meryls · 13/09/2019 20:46

in fact all of my skirts are 14 (or 16) .. SadSadSad

Laska2Meryls · 13/09/2019 20:46

..and some of my tops also .. double Sad.,

Laska2Meryls · 13/09/2019 20:47

.. I hate sizes and scales and all of this stuff, actually

Laska2Meryls · 13/09/2019 20:50

& I have always wanted to be petite and wan.. but sadly I am a galumphing girl, a 'big and healthy and supposedly 'jolly' type ( but not posh enough to carry it off)

Laska2Meryls · 13/09/2019 20:52

OK I am going now ( too much Wine ) ..

Please take no notice of last few self pitying posts ..

Laska2Meryls · 13/09/2019 20:56

We wont mention it again.. This is why I live in rural isolation and see nobody..

Please ignore all posts made by me after 8.30 this evening .. no mentions ..ok?

Thanks..Normal service will be resumed later ..

Ellapaella · 13/09/2019 21:38

Laska behave.... you are lovely and don't have to wish you were anything other than you are.
Boo hiss to sizing and scales.... 😣👎

I'm feeling sorry for myself. I was meant to be out with my lovely friends tonight but am too poorly. Have mild fevers and the chills, muscles feel like I've run a marathon (which I most certainly have not). I'm back in bed now about to watch The disappearance on BBC IPlayer - anyone watching? It's very gripping and it's french, so I am admiring the wardrobes of the two main female characters.

Sooverthemill · 13/09/2019 21:47

ella we watched that when it was first on. Really enjoyed it. Was thinking of watching again. You sound very poorly so rest up. My hush return has finally been processed. I wonder if they had staff issues?

Ellapaella · 13/09/2019 22:09

Something's gone on @Sooverthemill - this was the first time I've had to chase a return in ages. To be fair once I called they did it Srinagar away.

Ellapaella · 13/09/2019 22:10

No idea what Srinagar means. My phone thinks it's a word though!
