Who actually had any of that stuff at home when they were a kid? I know I didn't! I had to fold the normal stuff over...

Had to laugh when I was skimming through a copy of the "Daily Mail" when the photos of her in "that" dress were shown. They'd interviewed someone in the crowd she was walking past who said something like "that's a very brief dress, it didn't look like she could have been wearing a bra"! Bra? She was hardly wearing the dress!

And you're right - no-one I knew ever had "real" double sided sticky tape. Or postcards.

Or sticky-back plastic for that matter - clear OR patterned!!! I still to this day have never seen patterned sticky-back plastic in real life.

AFAIK tit tape isn't double sided. But I could be wrong - I've never needed any!

I don't see how it would work if it wasn't doublesided though . . .
