Hi dear peeps :oops:

I'm so fed up with the pains everywhere that when I chatted on the phone today to my bestest friend of 46 years she told me it was ok nowadays to wear a fur coat. I got my lovely neighbour to go up in the loft and get mine down for me :oops:

I can't tell you how wonderful it feels on my knackered joints and my two **** cats love it too. His name's Felix and he's a snow lynz but he's been a coat for 35 years :oops:

Love Cherry xx

    Hi, It never bothered me either, except that I didn't have one! I do now I've inherited the one my m-o-l had. I havn't worn it, but I might do as it fits but it feels strange and I think I look odd, even though you can now buy them almost the same except they arn't real! Love Sue

    If it works for you then do it. I have never been bothered about the real fur issue - fake fur causes pollution in its manufacture, and doesn't rot when disposed of. I hope your joints are truly feeling the benefit of a good natural warmth. DD
