I bought a cardie a couple of years ago when I was on holiday, it is to long in the body and sleeves but good to have on instead of putting the heating on.
A Jo Brand joke..... you know you are getting old when your Mum buys you a cardigan and you like it, that's me folks. :-D

Maggie :-D I do too - a thinner one - use the thick one for going outside.

I'm sure the thought of wearing a fleece indoors would have sent her into paroysms.

Oh dear. I don't own a cardigan. :-(
I tend to wear fleeces indoors when it's cold.

I hope she meant that it was cold cos otherwise I am right out of fashion and I can't be having that at my age! :-D

I am with you names, I have a few cheaper, longer (on me anyway, but I am short) cardies of thin material which I wear throughout the year in and around the house, keeping my 'better' quality cardies for going out when I don't think the occasion warrants a short jacket.

I am lucky, though, I rarely feel the cold as I am a warm bod, unlike my OH who feels the cold terribly, due to the medication he is on, I think.

I might have got this wrong as I didn’t see the who,e thing, but there was a woman on tv saying she knows when something is wrong when she has to wear a cardigan. :-S

It is autumn, cardi and jumper time. There Is something wrong when you are wearing more than one cardi but at this time of year I wear a cardi. It is only a thin one at the moment but will wear a thicker one later on as I can’t be bothered to turn the heating up as OH is away at the moment.

Unlike the lady on tv I can afford to have my heating on but choose to keep it low and wear a woolly. Othewise going outside could be a huge shock to the system.
