so went shopping today but paying £20+ for something to do soldering etc in stopped me so I am now sat here repairing my 2 comfy cardys... have to pick up stitches and everything but I will have 2 cardys at just the cost of my time! Got better things to spend my money on!!!

I don't quite understand? I work in whatever I'm wearing.

Well, I have very best and not so and I did promise myself I wouldn't buy anything until I lost weight... having put back on a few of the pounds that I did lose I can't buy myself anything and I don't think my good stuff would suit the workshop (even if I could get into it)

I should point out that I made that promise about 7 years ago....:">

Perhaps you could wear one of your husband's old shirts over your decent clothes ( very Bridget Bardot !!)

Can't help so much on tops, but the Tesco £4 jeans are great value for workshop use.

I favour the naked approach :)

You would!

Well, it's common sense isn't it? You can't sit there working in your Sunday best and then go straight to church can you? Best to just let it all hang out and get the breeze through your nostrils - or you could just wear old clothes I suppose, but that wouldn't be much fun would it? :~:

I look forward to visiting your work(sweat?)shop Alan, I am sure it would be a very interesting experience !! Do all your staff wear your recommended uniform?

I tend to have a couple of old sweatshirts and will wear one if I know I am going to spend the whole day in the work room, but I have a denim apron I can wear if just popping in and out (of the work room).

Hmm, afraid I favour the apron wearing option. I use a green tabbard I got for a fancy dress costume where I went as Hilda Ogden!

A thick drill apron is a much cheaper option than a new wardrobe of work wear i would think

I tend to work in slipper socks and a clown hat - although I don't always do full make up.
