Had a day in Yarmouth yesterday. I called into the pound shop. I was really surprised to find so much gardening things which only cost one pound. 3 balls of gardening string . which is much more exspensive in the gardening centers. Also gardening gloves. Lots of lovely pots. Garden gnomes and lots of other ornaments. It is well worth a look GOY members if you have one in your area. I also bought some new gardening socks and a matching hat


I was looking for something a bit brighter!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you think I will get noticed wearing these????

Watch out as some of the gardening gloves are less than substantial - I bought some cotton ones but they fell apart after 5 minutes - I would recommend turning them inside out to check that the seams are firmly sown before investing your pound!

You will definatly be "SPOTTED"in those socks, but lost in the foliage in the boots,
and with that hat you should be seen from space,

Oooooo. I love these. You will look fab Donnah. Don't upset the chickens with all the bright colours. LOL
We had to be careful of that with the broiler chickens in the barns. If you wore bright clothing, sometimes the chickens would panic and there would be chickens having heart attacks right, left and centre.
We have the same kind of shops here only they are $1 stores. I love them. You can find so many useful and affordable things.

I don't know about getting noticed, you might get arrested for dazzling passers by. No, I'm only joking. They are very nice and very colourful. Looks like the sort of thing one might buy in Regent Road in Yarmouth! I can remember my sons buying some very colourful 'T' shirts etc when my eldest used to work and live near Yarmouth.
