Went shopping at lunch time, in and out in half an hour and came out with four skirts and two new tops.
After seeing a woman get her headscarf/cloak thing (not sure which of the niquab/hijab/jilbab/chador etc it is, but it was tight around the head, left her face visible but went right down to the ground) caught in the escalator at Oxford Circus last night, I realised that it was time I got rid of one of my long denim skirts, because it's 2" to big round the waist, so it sits 2" lower than it was designed to, and is therefore too long to be safe. And denim doesn't tear, if I got it caught I could get hurt.
I think the woman was OK, but I didn't hang around, there was nothing useful I could add to the situation and there was enough of a flap going on without me adding to it.
