It's that stripy scarf of yours, isn't it?

I love that and it started out as a purchase mistake. Would never have bought it had I realised the price. What about yours?

A pink satin nightie or a blue and white stripy tee shirt, depending on what mood I'm in or where I am!

Does a badge count? Its meant for sticking to clothes so presumably it does.
Its a button badge from the before I was even born. Its yellow round the outside with the words 'David Steel means action' and in the middle it has a black & white picture of him. I generally have it pinned onto one of the bags I use for my work gear.

Mine is a shirt (blue and white check) which I bought in Camden Market in 1971. It was second hand then so heaven knows how old it is. I still wear it regularly and, apart from a small hole near the pocket, it's in better shape than I am.
I have nothing to say and I'm going to say it.

mine is a black top from wallis which i was wearing last friday. On one drunken occasion i spilt red wax down it and couldn't get it out, luckily my clever mum managed so I am able to continue to wear my favourite top.

A dab hand with the old brown paper and warm iron, is she?

that wax trick is all I use my iron for. if clothes can't fend for themselves they're doomed.
fave item I think is a long black summer dress that just keeps on going, even when I wear it to paint or garden in.

Nope. Tried that myself and it didn't work.
It was a wonder spray from Lakeland. Which sadly is now discontinued.

That keeps happening with them, but keep checking as they have been known to "re-continue" products!!
