He has just come back from his Holiday.

Perhaps he came straight from the airport still wearing holiday gear. He sounded jet-lagged to me.

Today's competition is between Ben di Lisi and Katy Pullinger - who can wear the must ludicrous, ridiculous trousers. Has either of them actually looked in the mirror?

I think they were the same ones Alex Kramer was wearing. They looked like the jeans the wee guy down the pub wears because he doesn't know what Wundaweb is.

Ben looked much better in his hour with Simon Biagi, his trousers were full length and matched the rest of his outfit.

I'm speechless, and that doesn't happen often.

Said it is in the washing do not go out of shape. RL is same. Plain vest nearly 30 pound

Asda do perfectly good vests and if you get the ones with more elastane in them they don't go out of shape when washing. I got a few last year and I think they were 2 for £6. Taking them away with me this year. £25-30 for one vest is a huge amount as you're going to need at least 2. I know the supermarket ones are made in China/Bangladesh/India but if you look at the designer ones they are probably made in the same countries and more probably in the same factories.

I've found Asda tee shirts and vest tops wear well and as you've said, they often do two for £5 or £6 deals. Much better value than a couple of tee shirts I bought in Marks & Sparks last summer, and the necks went like boats after a couple of washings, really stretched and baggy - and at £16 for two I think they should have lasted longer than that. I only got them because I had a M & S voucher to use up. They ended up in the textiles recycling bag. Rubbish. I've found Asda quite good for clothing basics.
