Women's Latest Phrase
Have you noticed that while a few year's ago women used to repeat rabbit-fashion the phrase, "I've got nothing to wear," in answer to any question whatsoever, that is now obviously old hat?
Nowadays, just like Pavlovian dogs, they salivate a different phrase all the time. You can hear it in the school playgrounds, the hairdressers, Tescos, the pubs, the bars, the nightclubs.
Listen closely and you'll hear them answer just about any enquiry as to their health, wealth or holiday location with the phrase, "Primark £4.50."
Is this some sort of code?

WALMART?
You have WALMART in England?
Oh MY GOD!
I'm very very very very sorry. We're doing everything we can here to keep them out of business (legally speaking). Don't tell me they have McDonalds restaurants in your WALMART store too!

Walmart swallowed one of the largest supermarket chains (ASDA) here last year or maybe the year before.
McDonalds are everywhere, but then so are most diseases.
In Bloom
Asda are introducing mcdonalds restaurants verrry soon

Come on gals, you know the big dollop's right.

WTF is a McDonald's restaurant?

"Nowadays, just like Pavlovian dogs, they salivate a different phrase all the time. "
That Wiggins really doesn't like women does it?

Every time I go to the States I have to make a pilgrimage to Wal*Mart just to remind myself how fantastically demonic it really is!!!
Karl Wiggins
Wallmart's the business, Jude! A trip to the USA is never complete without a visit to Wallmart. You can snap up enough bargains there to last a year.

Maybe that is an opening bid.
Liana
You can listen as close as you like, you'll never hear me saying it.

Nor I!
Rachel
Might hear me muttering "sucker" under my breath though (or worse).
In Bloom
I thought it was "goh..he's hot."
I notice that women touch their asses alot. Just give it a quick feel or a stroke. whats all that about?
Mark Brown
Women?
Surely you mean 'some women', or 'women I know' or 'women I have seen'.
I find it highly unlikey that ALL women do any certain thing.
I'm such a pedant aren't I?
Rachel
No Mark, you are quite right and a credit to your gender. Wiggins, on the other hand, is not.
Emma
Mark's more than a credit to his gender.

If "Primark £4.50" is the new "I've got nothing to wear", I'm emigrating.
I got a very funcky checked shirt thing in Camden Market at the weekend...just have to eek the last remnants of style out of my system before I get into the sandals (although it was either Liana or Fish who said you can get funky DM sandals now).
Emma
If they say so - then that must be the case!!!

I just looked on the doc Marten site and they have a wide range of sandals...a bit clunky for me but then practicality over elegance I suppose. I bet Jesus didn't wear Puma Temos during his 40 days in the wilderness

WTF is Primark?
mississippi
Walmart with lower prices!
jude
It is a budget clothes shop... although I have to say...they do sell some branded gear at good prices BUT a lot of their stuff is cheap nasty crap that runs and loses whatever shape it may have once possesed after one wash.
In Ireland it's called "Penney's"

No no...wal*mart is a sub-cultural experience marginally outside the bounderies of Dante's 4th level of hell. Primark is much duller.
mississippi
Ok, you're the expert!
