End of August review – 2021

End of August review – 2021

Hello everyone It’s the 1st day of September and while I could be saying where did that month of August go, I rather think the more appropriate thing to say is, where did our summer go? Because in the UK we had one week of hot weather in June, another

My first visit to an exhibition!

My first visit to an exhibition!

Oh wow!  This was our first visit to an exhibition since November 2019. I’ve felt so starved of my cultural hits, which I just took for granted, you know, that visiting museums, art galleries and exhibitions was my way of life and that’s how I behaved. But hey, last week

Distractions, brain fog and ways to be positive

Lockdown Diaries – February 2021

Hi everyone Phew, bit of a challenging week last week as I was recovering from tripping and falling hard on my face, oops a daisy as they say. I was fine, albeit a bit shocked so no need to worry, but my neck is a bit stiff so haven’t done

Hello everyone Over 15 million people are now vaccinated in the UK, apparently that’s 86% of all the over-70s. The 15 million are the people in the four top priority groups and the vaccination programme has now moved on to people aged 65 to 69.  More about all of that

Here’s to better things to come!

Hi everyone Got my vaccination done last Wednesday and, my word, the whole roll-out of vaccines in the UK is an incredibly efficient operation, and that, of course, is because it was not outsourced to an expensive private sector contractor but organised by our wonderful NHS. And what’s more they

About Me

My name is Penny, I am 75 years old and I live in Lewes, East Sussex. My reasons for writing a fashion blog is that I have built up a great wardrobe on very little money mainly because I buy from charity shops.

So my blog will feature the clothes I have found since I retired, and the clothes that I continue to find in my local charity shops. From time to time I will also comment on issues around women and ageing.

Penny,
the Frugalfashionshopper
