? thought that would be a good idea. So if someone is annoying you and you wish to say so perhaps rather than ruining the conversation you could refer the person to whom you wish to have a go at to this thread and then you could argue to your hearts content, being a pain in the ass to everyone else.

This is going to be so popular I just know it is??????????

It looks nothing like a toilet roll cover. It's not crocheted in garish stripes of cheap wool.

They don't have to be wool. My gran had one made of pink shiny material with lace flounces and a plastic lady's half body on the top. (Sound familiar?)

Whatever they're made of, the point is that the skirt is huge to cover the toilet roll, like a meringue-style wedding dress - which is not what Camilla's ensemble looks like.

Oh, come on, use a bit of imagination!

Hmm...

jinglbellsfrocks Mon 30-May-16 18:37:36

But I still think it's really pretty.

Bellanonna Mon 30-May-16 18:39:36

I think it looks completely wrong

Bellanonna Mon 30-May-16 18:40:43

Camillas outfit, that is

jinglbellsfrocks Mon 30-May-16 18:42:46

The more I look at it, the more I want it.

jinglbellsfrocks Mon 30-May-16 18:43:34

I would really like the toilet roll holder dolly too.

The caretaker where I worked in 1969 gave me a hand knitted loo roll holder when I got engaged. I wanted to puke, but I smiled and thanked her so much. If I can find it 47 years later Jing you can gave it, however the moths may have got their first.

NanKate Mon 30-May-16 18:56:09

Have not gave hmm

jinglbellsfrocks Mon 30-May-16 18:56:45

I only want a frilly one. White with pink tinges.

jinglbellsfrocks Mon 30-May-16 18:57:09

Perhaps with sparkles.

whitewave Mon 30-May-16 18:59:32

When would you wear it?

jinglbellsfrocks Mon 30-May-16 19:00:53

What, the frock or the toilet roll cover? confused

whitewave Mon 30-May-16 19:05:13

Well both - the toilet roll holder looks like a hat.
Did the Spring Faire live up to your expectations? We usually go to one in my daughters village - in fact DH has a stall, but it is only every 2 years as it is such hard work for the volunteers who all tend to be elderly as all the youngsters go out to work these days.

It's freezing down here in the South - north wind.
