Bobbly

 "More fingerless gloves?"

"These are cheap ones for wearing round the house. The expensive ones that came earlier are only for going out in"

Fingerlesss gloves are not hard wearing. Threads come loose and when you wash them they go all bobbly. This doesn't bother me, but Ailz isn't keen on me looking like a Victorian miser.

I get my lack of sartorial awareness from my mother who once went on holiday to Venice having packed nothing but her gardening clothes.....
