Went to New Malden to look at a car. Turns out it's fucking Korea Town! Nipped into a Korean supermarket and came out with about £20's worth of frozen dumplings and a bamboo steamer. Nice! :thumbup:

Was reading the reviews yesterday, sounds pretty good. I might look at the standard 6 next year.

I figured my 2xl had served its time and these were looking interesting from the 10000001 'leaks', plus 'free' £300 headphones ain't not to be sniffed at :banana-dance:

Better than the other one! Probably won't buy it but I had a video call with the wife and the Alhambra/Sharan platform is the one we want. It's surprisingly big inside and the seat layout is perfect.

My calculator says that jumper, @ 3150AED, cost £623.96 each. You bought "a couple". It must be nippy out there, right enough....

I bought a couple of woollies from Massimo Dutti the other day. Rocked in, no appointment necessary, picked them up, tried them on, paid and then walked out of the shop.

I must be a right fucking high roller as I didn't have to put a deposit down and wait six months or nuffink. :thumbup:

IS this more name dropping like we're supposed to have a clue who or what Massimo Dutti is ?

I bought my last tops from Decathlon.... they probably look shit though to you :D However they cost my £8 each and keep me warm.

Clothes shop. I thought most high streets had one as there's quite a few around here. Nothing special or remarkable about them, thus was the thrust of my rapier-like wit and satire.

That said, their website, which I've never had cause to look at prior to finding the link for this post, is full of moody, underfed yoots lolling over furniture in such as way as would have got me a clip around the ear from my mum: https://www.massimodutti.com/gb/

Is Decathlon the dodgy sportswear shop that sticks discount labels on everything and looks like a jumble sale?
