Has anyone bought one of these ?
Could you please tell me the size of it? I don't know why they don't state it! I have mailed M&S but they haven't replied yet.
Or has anyone seen the same thing elsewhere? Thanks!

Morning everyone Lol with Robinia and Vinny today. You make my days with your humour. I am relaxing today as I'm going out tonight for a meal with 3 of my friends who I have known since I was born it seems, we meet up most years for a chat. That's not quite me Jno I am more casual than that, wide leg trousers and a top usually from Next or Per Una and I have a selection of different coloured jackets to match in suede or leather. I only wear skirts in the Summer. And definitely not today as it is cold and blustery and Weeing down at the mo.
this could be me with grey hair
And I'm not as good looking lol

Hi all, just popping by to send you this optical illusion that you may have already seen - it's been around for a couple of years. Anyways, just follow the instructions and you'll see - ...Vinny?!

Whoa, Netti, that cat of yours looks like a real mean machine!
Jude, have you considered making a living doing those competitions? There are people who do! (Or maybe that's just a myth.)
jno, your family situation sorta reminds me of my own as far as family goes - but do try to stay on speaking terms with your friends now! Reading your post reminded me of what happened a couple of days ago at an internetcafe. I was watching a video clip showing a French performer doing a 'living statue' kind of thing. I could feel somebody standing behind me looking over my shoulder, and suddenly this black man comes forward and says in broken English, about the performer on the screen:
You know him...? He's a friend of mine. He's a total ***hole.
Oh well... Shaney, did you see my nephew's dog that I posted here the other day for Shaney and Charlie? Charlie doesn't want her, so... (He's - and I qoute - a wimp.)
Off to run some errands now, I'll (probably) drop by a little later again.

Jaysus/Vinny, that's embarrassing...! I realized that somebody must have already posted it at some time - but not that it would be you...! It was actually in an ad in a newspaper over here about five years ago, and ever since then I've reactivated it in one form or another every Christmas. Hate your dog, by the way. No, I don't - but isn't he spooky, though - for once I'm able to listen, and what's on in Biddyland: An eerie pooch who seems to have swallowed a baby, by the sound of it.
