@Laska2Meryls, I have checked too and mine is renewed until 31 Jan 2023!

Countmeout · 04/02/2022 17:22

Mine too. No postcard but I am always behind with post.

I ordered the flat front trousers. It’s the time of year I always feel I am short of a trouser or five. The reviews are correct you need to size down. But they are too long and I didn’t love them enough to bother getting them shortened. Might suit if you are 5’6” or so and I am not.

I've received a postcard - but it is genuinely a 'welcome to' as it's my first invitation.

BigDayToday · 04/02/2022 18:09

Thanks @ToastCosILoveIt and yes, @neveradullmoment99, that's the one. I didn't really think the colour would suit me but it does and I love it! I know it'll pop up again eventually - the hunt is part of the fun Grin

neveradullmoment99 · 04/02/2022 18:13

I received the Toast grid dress and its gorgeous!!! As I lifted it out of the bag, I wasn't sure. It also looked extremely big. It totally transformed when on. It is so lovely and beautifully made.

@Countmeout - which flat front trews?

These @NoCureForLove. I thought they’d be nice as the weather warmed up.

Checked mine too

I got the kindred card although I had checked mine online too.
When I got the card I was a little🤔
Bit of a waste of resources without a discount!

neveradullmoment99 · 05/02/2022 11:57

They could have easily emailed it.

ilovecherries · 05/02/2022 13:46

I got a bit excited by the postcard - convinced myself it would be a birthday card with a discount. - even Johnnie sent me a tenner and I haven’t bought anything from him for about 4 years.

ilovecherries Johnnie is persistent isn't he 😂?

ScottishMouse · 05/02/2022 16:09

I bought the alpaca yoke sweater this morning, and I love it! I’m wearing it right now and it is so cosy.
I also tried this on, and was quite taken with it. I’m just not sure if the collar is a bit too much though. I might order it online to try with some things I have at home.

Here’s a photo, so you can tell me your thoughts on the collar. The previous Andy Pandy style shirts have done nothing for me, but this one might be a contender.

Think it looks great Scottish mouse really suits you!

@ilovecherries

I got a bit excited by the postcard - convinced myself it would be a birthday card with a discount. - even Johnnie sent me a tenner and I haven’t bought anything from him for about 4 years.
I do like an occasional voucher from Johnnie as I still buy the odd coat for a grandchild when the price is right .

I love that blouse @ScottishMouse. That’s not online is it? I think it looks great on you.
Glad you love the alpaca yoke sweater I think it looks lovely too. Which colour did you go for?

ScottishMouse · 05/02/2022 16:32

I went for the navy with green @Countmeout. The other colour is lovely too but would wash me out terribly.
Am very tempted by the shirt. It is online, link above. Another new thing hiding and not in the new in section. I must have a proper look through all the sections on the website in case there are other lovely things hiding.
I also saw the lovely new fine stripe shirt in new colours (with no stripe) - slate and I think a yellow. Would have loved the slate but they only had one size, and they told me in the store it wouldn’t be online until March! The same for the green Alix that they only got one of. Odd.

Countmeout · 05/02/2022 16:39

Thank you @ScottishMouse missed the link.
It is lovely and not too bad a price.

ScottishMouse · 05/02/2022 16:52

You are convincing me @Countmeout! I wonder if the collar might just look too much worn over a contrasting coloured jumper or cardi though. I should have tried it with something in the store. I feel a return trip coming on…

MrsCat1 · 05/02/2022 17:33

Has anyone seen the beaded collar shirt in real life? Just wondering what impressions were. Or shall I be Guinea pig and order it? Grin

AFingerofFudge · 05/02/2022 17:56

Green Alix you say @ScottishMouse ?
Plain green? Did you get to see it?

faustina · 05/02/2022 18:00

@AFingerofFudge - haha - I've already hassled her about them! They sound great don't they?

ToastCosILoveIt · 05/02/2022 19:05

@MrsCat1, please be our guinea pig!

ScottishMouse · 05/02/2022 19:07

Yes @AFingerofFudge. A khaki green colour in the cotton/linen fabric. They look very useful. They had only received one pair, and thought they would not be online until next month. I will be waiting to pounce when they arrive!

ScottishMouse · 05/02/2022 19:08

No beaded shirt in Edinburgh @MrsCat1.
