Week 47

Only a few more weeks left of 2022. What a year it has been ! Now it is the time of Winter festivals which started with Diwali last week. This week is Thanksgiving in the USA and soon it will be Christmas. Traditionally a time when party clothes are purchased. Already Diwali has passed by without the opportunity for dressing up and already we know that no Christmas parties or works do’s will be taking place. Looks as if Christmas will go ahead in some form or other. But I also suspect that we are all so used to wearing clothes for comfort that Christmas attire will remain more casual than usual.

Emails are already pouring onto my phone with discounts for Black Friday on clothing. I’ve resisted looking at the bargains as I suspect there will be plenty post Christmas. How many more retailers will go under in January and how will the high street look post Christmas. Pretty devastated I suspect. Hard times ahead .
