Or what is a muchkin?
(I am despairing at my jeans, I own two pairs, both of which once fit, and neither of which does. Oh, and I have maybe a fancy dinner/dance/overnight thing next Friday, and the MN do (owe you a cheque HM - can I just transfer funds, much better at that) and no idea of clothing for either, whoops.)
