Actually I do look exactly like that girl but with trousers the proper length of course.

I know! It's got a lovely soft lining but I might as well be blowing a trombone as I go along!

Trumpet Voluntary!!

Oh that’s unfair because it’s a perfect jacket (apart from the noise😬)

I see you don’t have the thigh problem 🤣

Here it is if you're wondering where the noisy rustling is coming from. That's me modelling it 😂

This is the problem with on-line shopping- you are never completely sure what you are going to get!

I love the thought of our Gransnet trio marching along loudly and proudly!

Oh what a shame, too late to return it I suppose? I too giggled at this though, sorry.

Quite honestly Lathyrus this site needs a bit more humour.
I often laugh at things on MN.

Lathyrus3 Tue 14-Oct-25 12:24:46

Now you’ve made me laugh again. Great vision..

What is Gransnet coming too………l

Oreo Tue 14-Oct-25 12:22:53

We could have made a grand entrance as a trio 😄

That’s twice I’ve laughed at a thread in two minutes. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I can’t wear cord trouser ( very fashionable this season) because my fat thighs create such a noise as I walk😳

I used to have some shoes that did the same thing, got rid of them when I saw someone turn their head to look, they made a squelching farty sound😁

What is it lined with?

At least everyone knows you're coming!
Sorry, I shouldn't laugh but 😂

I recently treated myself to a new everyday winter jacket. I saw it online and liked it but went into town to the shop to buy it. It's lovely. Very smart. The only snag is that it's so noisy! It rustles and creaks as I walk along. (Its definitely the jacket btw!)
Nothing to do about it. I'll just have to get used to it.
