Unless you have a daughter aged between 6 and 14 you will have had no need to encounter the horror that is Claire's Accessories. More expensive plastic tat per square foot than any other retail outlet in the known universe and probably beyond.
I am being guilted into a trip to the town centre branch this afternoon because I am working away next week and must therefore compensate the AB by purchasing her body weight in hair bobbles and lip gloss. It's not fair, I don't want to go!
Will go and try diversionary tactics - they won't work, but it will make me feel less like a lamb to the slaughter.

Will go and try diversionary tactics.
Do you know how to tap dance? That works a treat with human kids. They spend hours trying to copy you.
Oh gorilla of course I tap dance - my pick up time steps are a wonder of middle aged limberness!
As a diversionary tactic though - not so good, as the AB also tap dances and I'm in the final stages of still being better at it than she is.
Mutley - I know, a lot of it doesn't quite go with the ears though!
Oh god. Claire's is full of such shit. Honestly.
I love their pink fluffy Alice bands.
