Oh dear

First law of shopping: never, but never, buy clothes -- especially shoes -- when you are premenstrual. You will wake up the next morning all bleedy and sad, shriek with horror and have to take them back.

Why? Because what you have bought will be a) red, b) shiny or, in the case of E's exemplary premenstrual trainer purchase, c) both.

I know this, and yet I went to the Fat Face sale on my way into work this morning. Now I think about it, they *did* have some red trousers, which I made a beeline for immediately, but they didn't have them in my size. Lord be praised.

But I did buy a top with a big flower on it. And some trousers. And now I daren't open the bag.
