I love clothes shopping even more so when I have plenty of money to do so. .Thankfully my oh enjoys it too.When we lived in the Uk we were regular visits at the Bullring.Here we dont shop so much.I suppose we find other things to occupy ourselves and I dont seem to need as much clothes.Going to Kl in July so looking forward to a bit of shopping there.

shopping is my idea of hell

I'd rather have a meal and a few (too many) drinks

Oh that's also involved when I do a retail therapy session.

I love shopping! Online or at a store, don't care! But I like to have it in my mind what I need to get and I go out and get it.

I don't wander around aimlessly and don't go to hundreds of shops, just a couple and if I can get what I want then I just call it a day.

I noticed Myers actually have a bar next to the women’s shoe area. On Saturday it was full of men drinking themselves into oblivion.

The retail therapy bit I can understand, it’s how it all fits together that gets me.
  • We went shopping for a belt.
  • We didn’t like the colour of the belts.
  • But we did buy a pair of boots that were the colour of the belt that we didn’t like.
  • Then we have to buy trousers to go with the boots.
  • Somewhere a handbag will be required to match the boots, and then a shirt and a jacket.

I just don’t get it.

Just do the exactly same when you 'need' a new TV or gadget or whatever. Drag her to the main 'Gadget Heaven' and then go to 10 others for all the extra bits like cables, cleaner, media, 3D glasses etc...

Make sure you go back to a few of the previous shops, under the pretense that the cables were better in shop xyz etc...

It works.

I saw a beautiful 20 year old in a shop with a fella who was obviously a lot older and was pissing myself cos she was literally screwing him in the shop. He genuinely had no idea as she was clearly playing a loving and innocent wife and he was falling for it. She nearly bought the shop out "thank you dahling".......

Hey mister, love you velly much for velly long time

My little Geisha is well over 20 I am pleased to say, but I was being dragged around stores. And you are right she is beautiful, and so I forgive her anything.

My concern is I am off on this island thing, and she is staying in Sydney one her own with a pile of credit cards. Should I be worried?
