We have spent a few hours in Chesterfield today ( Whoopy Doo - not! )
Hubby fancied a new suit for the wedding we are going to over Christmas period.
He doesn't want black or Grey as he has one!
Burtons - hardly anything
Marks & Spencer - nope - they are not in fashion!!
BHS - Nope!
Greenwoods - nothing he fancied >:(
Midway through tramming round for the elusive suit we called at Costa Coffee for a quick drink. Hubby had a Latte which looked more like hot milk without coffe and I had a cafe cooler which was tasteless - I left most of it!! >:(
I was looking for fascinator for the wedding - only shop who has a decent selection is 'She'
We then called in at the new Meadowfresh cafe where Hudsons used to be.
The cup of tea was ok I had but had to stem back permanent retching as the smell of raw meat was wafting over to the cafe side and I hate the smell.
Toddled off to Debenhams
YIPPEEE
Hubby got a suit and was well chuffed as they had a good selection
Back at home he's flipping moaning as it's only got imitation pockets on the outside ( it has pockets which are usable inside! ) >:(
He can go on his own next time - worse than women for shopping are these men!
Moan over ;)
-
What good are imitation pockets. Does he have an imitation wallet and imitation bunch of keys to put in them.
Can't you get the sewing machine out and mod them ;)
He's not wearing it till xmas 8)
-
Are they imitation pockets - or just stitched closed like the last suit I bought?
Might just need some scissors!
-
Or Mr Cruser could have saved his money and gone to the wedding in his birthday suit problem solved! :))
-
Pam, the pockets will be usable. They just want a gentle unpicking. Mr Gerts last suit, together with a coat I got recently also had sewn up pockets. Not sure why they do it except maybe to deter shoplifters perhaps.
Anyway, glad it was a successful trip after all the trauma :)
-
Oh didn't know that folks - thanks for the tip off. I was getting worried as thought I might have to take my purse when we went out ::)
I will have a look cos he's still on about them!
Oh and to carry on with the moan, I also went into Monsoon, not been in for a while and thought they may have a dress in I liked. I noticed they have condensed the clothes and brought out the tat at the back of the shop >:(

Sorry to hear you've not had a fun day, :( I have had a good day today for a change, been off work for a start,(thats always a good start) :)) then managed to fix my sons Land Rover's gearbox problems, and more to the point it cost us nowt ;D.
