Shandon Par Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Swarley and anyone else who wears a cardigan. I bought a cardigan recently but have yet to wear it. Is there a sub-category for me? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwullie Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Ran out of nescafe azera so will have to have millicano instead. It's just not as nice Edited July 17, 2015 by madwullie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Yes. I'll accept that - it's a proper poncey, midlife crisis effort. Owned a big chunky cardy once before but used/destroyed it when my car was stuck in snow. Not to keep warm, but to jam under the tyres to gain traction. It saved my life (or at least saved me walking the last few hundred yards home). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you'll notice that you are not alone & feel snug about yourself. I have a friend who told me all about it. Grimbo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Glorious here in my wee sunny corner of Edinburgh. Plus someone has already brought me a nice bottle of wine and some shortbread this morning. They'd probably take it back off me if I let on about the cardigan stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 There is a level above or below, whichever way you look at it for cardigan wearers and that is the sleeveless variety, guys that strut about in this clobber need to have a word with themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I was thinking more of summer/fashion cardigans but I also have this winter warmer tucked away at home. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim O'Grady Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) I was thinking more of summer/fashion cardigans but I also have this winter warmer tucked away at home. Oh no the cardy factions of buttons opposed to the zipper.If I were a cardy wearer (obviously I am not but do have a friend in this category of humans). I like to appear as a traditionalist in most aspects of my life, therefore I conclude I would be in the buttons brigade. I doubt there's been many A&E admittances from button cardy related incidents but I imagine quite a few via the zipper variation. I s'pose it comes down to living dangerously?

Shandon Par Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Zipped cardigans really are for sub human Peter Tobinesque scumbags. ^^^^ Man who sells wallpaper to raise funds to buy orange boiler suits for us all type post 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwullie Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Ran out of nescafe azera so will have to have millicano instead. It's just not as nice Good news. Popped down to asda, they're selling azera at 3 notes. Bought two tins, sadly no intenso (fml) so had to get espresso. I'll live, but a bit sad tbh Edited July 17, 2015 by madwullie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Cuddy Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Some bugger has put my spring form cake tin "away" and now I have to make a smaller but deeper cheesecake in a loose bottomed tin. I wish people wouldn't touch my stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Skidmarks Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I just went to Luca's on Morningside to order an Ice Cream cake for next Saturday as we have people round. The Malteser cake is only available in the 'mini' version. Gutted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Just sold some brass curtain tie backs for £5. I'm on a serious roll here. Think I'll apply for the Apprentice. Maybe it's just me but I find selling awful tat on Gumtree is a good way to meet slightly attractive bored MILF types. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Pete Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Maybe it's just me but I find selling awful tat on Gumtree is a good way to meet slightly attractive bored MILF types. I always find selling on Gumtree a major hassle. Probably because I tend to use it for work related stuff rather than second hand wallpaper, so there's a lot of fat builder types who are functionally illiterate and very few (so few, in fact, that there are none) MILFs who get in touch about ads I post. So many timewasters too. Not people at the wind up per se, but hopeless morons who waste time with a series of inane and illegible questions and are just generally pests. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
