First pond experience

I've fallen in my pond before.
It was New Year's Eve and I had just bought the flashest outfit. I actually gave up ciggies to pay for it. Well really, I just put the money aside and bought French Champagne.
 I'm now a serious alcoholic with very expensive taste.
Back to the outfit. Pale blue cashmere twin set (doesn't sound so flash, but it was) and a fabulous silk taffeta skirt. Great shoes.
Anyway, end of the night and I decided to take my champagne outside.  Fell in the pond, we had fish in it then, after a while dragged myself out, shouted at Mark, for letting me near water when I was a bit wobbly boots, went to bed.
I rang The House of Cashmere, and asked if they were really serious about dry clean only and had anybody sat in a slimy pond for half an hour and if they did what were the chances of recovery for the outfit.  Short answer, rooted.
Remember that Mastercard ad?
Cashmere twinset.... $1,000
Silk skirt.... $600
High heels... $1,000
Mother pissed in pond ......Priceless!
