This makes so much sense, I wondered why he has stopped writing to me! 😮

He’s given up on you Kate! He knows there’s no chance… x

I’ve defected to Mint Velvet, which I now refer to as ‘the family tailor’. 😉 x

It’s infallible… even for jeans! x

Every time I go to type a reply, my phone keeps changing Boden to Biden which is funny in itself as I think of a potential mumbling ginger hybrid of the two😂😂

I love that you’re putting more of your sketches in your posts. They’re brill.

That letter! Yes it’s so funny when they get a bit over familiar, all first name terms and chummy. I am with Giff Gaff for my phone and if you top up they say stuff like “Nice one!” *cringe* 😂😂

That would irk me! Nice one! Glad you like the daft doodles - yet more work avoidance for me 😄xx

Ha! You’ve reminded me that I haven’t had a letter from Johnnie Boden in years. He must have got the hint!

My latest bugbear is those email’s reminding me that I was just five minutes ago browsing a website and to “pick up where I left off”, and take another look at my “new favourite”. Nope, there was a reason I left. I would never have worn that ditzy floral play suit, not even in my 20s :D

It’s all so incredibly annoying isn’t it! I can’t even THINK about a Boden swimsuit now without Johnnie tapping inside my brain with a little hammer xx

Oh yes, great read as usual Fiona! I type this - wearing a striped top of which I have FAR too many, - I blame Boden! Less bodenesque in my case (prob Asda) 😂

You definitely don't look like your drawings here - although very funny. Agree the swimwear is fabulous!
