Of course you should buy it, Goodness Me! I wouldn’t be asking you are 54 although actually I don’t think age comes into it, you’ve wanted one for 30 years. Well you go girl off to buy it and I hope it’s still available, if not order yourself one, and what’s more well done on your weight loss . You must feel fantastic x

Just buy it. Life is too short to deny yourself something you have always wanted. I bet you will look fabulous in it and get loads of compliments. And your Dad will be smiling up above

Hope you bought the coat, labazs and we all want to see a photo of you in it.

However, I am still laughing (and puzzling) about the ladies in refrigerators at the wedding ...
Help me out someone ... what was going on at the wedding?
