When we were in Germany you either bought your clothes out the Naafi or catalogue, our friends upstairs ask hubby and i to go to their Buff's do, i ordered a dress and shoes from catalogue showed them to G my friend and on the night of do they came down stairs rang our bell and when i opened door there was G stood in the same shoes and dress, needless to say i changed, but was raging with her, she even had her hair cut in same style, other friends said it was a compliment but to be honest is scared me.

I have a neighbour who wants everything I buy, regardless of whether it would be any good for her. Have had to advise her against a few times because she was buying things she couldnt use.
