Why O why do they make clothes labels out of that stuff that if it doesn't get you at first starts itching quite out of the blue after a number of washes, usually when you are on your way out somewhere and can't spare the time to change! |

It's the corners on the fold that are stabbie. I managed to make a hole in a t shirt when I unpicked one of the blahsted things :-| Why are they sewn on with such tiny stitches? :-| |

The first thing i do is to remove the labels and i have on occasion managed to make a hole when doing it as some are sewn into the seam. :-( |

Yes it's annoying when they are sewn into the seam . I cut them as close as possible but you are left with a coloured hard strip where the label has been |

I don't understand why they put BLACK labels on WHITE garments...... right at the neckline! |

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it - I don't mind unbuckling bras when I'm lucky enough to get the opportunity. But don't ask me anything about sizes. |

Printing on the fabric _ it washes out and fades, I find it hard to work out front and back on my rollneck tops! |

My mum had a 'Dresser' in her kitchen in the 1950s & it had nothing at all to do with ladies undergarments. |

How many times have I dressed for the evening or occasion in something new and then exclaimed there would be absolutely no way I could endure said garment for a second longer. |
