Spring post

I do believe Spring is almost upon us – yes the signs are all there that the season of new growth, new birth and light-weight pastel macs is upon us. In fact there has been a veritable rash of the latter around the stores this Spring. But, dear reader, why procure your bang-up-to-the moment pastel mac complete with hefty price tag from the Hight Street when you could be exploring the retail nooks and crannies of e-bay. Yes! I have discovered an Aladdin’s Cave of top-notch clobber at bargain prices. Just select the ‘New With Tag’ button and cruise Joseph, Jigsaw, Whistles and Hobbs courtesy of e-bay. At the click of your mouse a whole new world of bidding against other equally obsessive women opens up and livens up many a chilly Spring evening. Let your husband watch a pointless football match or ‘How Do They Do That?’ programme while you enjoy a glass of white, packet of M&S Extremely Chocolatey Rounds biscuits and the chance to out-bid other women on Boden essentials. I have won a number of little beauties, all of which will arrive this week in different packages from ‘Dizzybird‘, ‘Princess’ and ‘Kitten.’ It’s a whole new shopping experience. So ladies, get e-baying and join the fun. It’s better than foxy Bingo at any rate.
