I have got a navy blue, soft cotton, cap-sleeved, scoop-neck t-shirt that I picked up many years ago whilst working in Mumbai.


To this day, its still a favourite item of clothing and I'd hate to be without it. I had no idea when I bought it that I would end up liking it (and wearing it) so much.


Anything in your wardrobe that you've become ridiculously attached to? unexpectedly or not...

I am ridiculously attached to everything in my wardrobe Katie numbers. I'm surprised you felt the need to ask! Sheesh.


I won't ever be getting rid of anything again. From now on everything's for keeps. Here's why...

I wore my grandfather's fringed, white satin evening scarf when I went on a date with D**** L*****, as I thought it would make me look a little bit like Morten Harket. We went to Wimpy and to see Beverley Hills Cop. I did not get in to Beverley Hills Cop as it was a 15.


Karen called her dad to come and get her. She did not have change for the payphone so I gave her 10p. I remember when I handed the coin to her it was boiling hot from having been in the pocket of my flecked, polyester trousers. She looked at me with what I now understand to be sympathy, but which I mistook at the time for disgust. A fine line, I suppose.


I still have the scarf (but not the trousers).

A couple of long sleeved, fine knit linen wrap cardies I bought from East quite some years ago. Have darned them a few times in an effort to keep them going but I know it is only a matter of time. Will be gutted when they give up the ghost eventually as I can't find anything like them anywhere now :(
In answer to the question I'd have to say none. If I were burning my clothes I'd probably leave till last the various customised t-shirts I've been given over the years to celebrate an annual reunion with my brothers. They sort of mean something.

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
