I love it - how do I find out where it's from. Hope it's not the market!

I've bought this one to read this coming weekend.🦌

I used to like those books 😁
And one about a Sparkly Christmas Angel who'd lost her sparkle.

All gone to the charity shop now ☹

Et voilà again?

Or even “wallah!”

grin wallah!

Did you know there's a Swedish clothing brand called Walla? I don't think Linda would like to wear their garments though because they're a bit bohemian, like Gudrun Sjödén's stuff.

One of the few things she wears that I thought I would quite like one like that

I like Linda's flamingo clothes and wish they were available somewhere.

What a snob you are, you want one but not from a market.

Happy Christmas, Mabon.

I have a similar one but not fluffy. Similar colours though. It's from Cotton Traders.

The trouble with the London markets for buying clothes is that many of them, like Portobello and Camden, sell a lot of vintage stuff. It ain't necessarily cheap either.
For Linda's threads, (that's Walford speak, E20 for clothes, you need to go down the Roman, E3 in Bow. The gear is affordable, (probably knocked-off), there.
I like Walthamstow myself, my mum used to drag me round there as a child every weekend.

Oh thanks escaped, I shall ha e a looksy.

It's reassuring to know she's gone to rehab with it. I can't wear anything hairy and fluffy, I start sneezing and itching within minutes. It looks as if very tight leather look leggings are in style in Eastenders along with a very low cami top and a big cardigan. I think most of the square are recovering alcoholics or involved somehow in a murder.

Bridie22 Wed 18-Dec-24 07:08:37

Yes Allsorts, that lovely comfy cardi will keep Linda warm while she is detoxing.
Love Enders, my half hourly escapism!

Once again I think you may have misunderstood OP's meaning.
'not from the market' I understand means the OP hopes the item is from a named retailer, in order to be able to purchase the item herself. Probably not possible from an unknown street market.

kittylester Wed 18-Dec-24 07:36:39

Thank you, Aldom.

Also, there is a market on Stenders.

And, it was a fairly light hearted thread.

Spoiler alert?
I thought we were watching her funeral - or is this like the shower scene in Dallas with Bobby?

I think what we saw was some sort of 'realisation' and a turning point. Wearing a fluffy cardi.

Surely not, you don't say!
Of course it was! grin

Bridie22 Wed 18-Dec-24 10:31:11

It's a miraculous fluffy , cosy cardi though🙂
