FabSwingers.com forum: Cardi time

By *icketysplits OP Woman

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

The shops are full of cardigans.

I've just bought on of those loose knit, long slouchy ones.

This evening is also the first time I feel cold enough to don a cardi.

Have you bought a new one? What sort?

Is it almost time for that cardi avatar challenge? (I couldn't find the original thread suggesting that.)

I'm going to have to buy some new ones as it gets chilly in our office at work, plus I'm to mean to put the hearing on until it gets really really cold!

Went to Canterbury today and have seen some lovely ones

You can't put the heating on in September.

Get that hot blooded man draped around you instead.

I'm poorly, he's gone to do the shopping and would go nuts if I put the heating on. My daughter did the other day and he nearly fainted. He's Dutch and said copper wire was invented by two Dutch men fighting over a penny...so you'll understand his pain if I put the heating on!

I'm sorry you are poorly.

I do understand his pain. I never put the heating on until November and it's off on 31st March. He sounds like a good solid soul.

If I'm cold the heating goes on, I used to be one of these that never put it on but I'm fortunate enough to be able to afford it so I'm not going to sit miserable in the cold.

I'm still on the summer duvet. I reckon you get used to an ambient tempreature...people often keep their coats on in my house.

Everyone should just get some blubber, it's so much cheaper than cardigans. Saying that we just got our winter stock in at work...is it too early to wear a furry lined, t trapper hat?

My head would melt in one of those. The problem with blubber is I can't wear lovely thick jumpers,scarves and wooly hats unless it's in the minuses outside

I'm with you on that, I can't wear a hat unless there is a freezing wind and then it's mostly just for my ears sake.

It's tempting to get some double glazing and put the heating on.

I have a newish slouchy long one and a few shrug types for work. I am more of a jumper fan generally though and have in fact changed my avatar to my current favourite pullover. For some reason I love it although it's a ridiculous 80's style off the shoulder one.

It looks lovely. I did notice the 80s style off the shoulder ones in the shop. I did them then and don't think I can now.

My landlord has actually put double glazing in some of the houses on the estate, and their rent is 200 per month more expensive than mine and also, I'm told the fire doesn't draw nearly as well..
