If I was so broke I had to buy clothes from Primark, I think I'd rather use charity shops.

Primark, the clothes are so cheap even the kids making them could afford them.

Let's all pray to Blue Peter that you never have to find out!

I knew an Indonesian woman who came to work in Newcastle. She was very interested in the city and in seeing new places, but had a dubious sense of direction and orientation. Whenever I told her about shops/cafés/etc I always had to give directions from Primark on Northumberland St.

Sometimes the slave labourers making the clothes like to put the wrong labels on to irritate middle aged blokes on bike forums.

Seems it works 8)

That's very modern of him but how does he get on with the sizing?

Their mens sizing (and range) does seem geared towards the skinny (or at least, supposedly normal) end of the spectrum, if you've got a BMI over 25 it can be difficult finding stuff!

I went in to Primark once, as I stood in the queue waiting to pay for a kids belt, there was a group of women behind me chatting. They were happily chatting loudly about lady down below issues, one telling them how her Doctor was trying very hard to convince her to have a hysterectomy.
I never want to be a party to hysterectomy chat again.
I will not go back.

Probably because of the tight clothing in there.
