hellisonHappy friday everybody! hurrah for short weeks (tho this hasn't felt so short).
While pottering about the internet this morning, mostly reading more Kate Harding , I discovered M&S have responded to a campaign by customers "blessed in the chest department" - which is an interesting euphamism and not very flattering to the smaller boobed among us (even if they do get cheaper bras, teh cowbags) - to sell bigger bras at the same price as smaller ones.
Oddly, it hadn't occurred to me to complain about that before, probably because I was just used to paying more, but, as someone aptly puts it here you don't pay more for socks if you have bigger feet, so why for bras?
Why indeed? It'd be nice if Bravissimo did the the same! I thought to myself (which is also an odd phrasing, you'd hardly think to someone *else*, unless you were telepathic. And so were they).
I went to check this - purely for research you understand, not just to look at pretty bras and my favourite pretty bra-selling lady in them (so pretty), the things I do for you people - and discovered that they too now seem to be selling them all the same price! No more £5 markups for a bit more material! Hurrah!
So, what is making you HURRAH today - anything from thankgodit'sfriday to victories over large retail chains?

I'm already annoyed with Ryanair. Despite all our flights being booked with me as lead passenger and confirmation being sent to my email, these fuckers keep sending me promotional emails which begin with 'Dear Rory'.
