I'm going to need new underwear in the imminent future (two pairs of socks emerged from the wash this week with large holes in the heels -- sadly they are different colours, so I can't combine the solitary survivors. Anyway, at least one of those is pretty much worn through as well. I'm happy to darn toes, but darning the heels in cotton/bamboo socks is just a non-starter; the affected area is far too large, and the result would rub hideously).

On the other hand, I couldn't help laughing at the idea of "Secondhand September", when the worldshaking idea is that you only buy second-hand clothes for a whole month -- I normally only ever buy second-hand clothes, and I certainly don't buy them as often as once a month, never mind buying new clothes multiple times in 30 days!
