    I live near Prospect Park, the Bath Road side... I used to live near the town centre though... why do you ask? :)

    I used to live in Lower Earley many years ago. I do love the shopping in Reading...in fact lots of my debt was built up there...tut tut!

  • Ah,,, my step-bro is in Lower Earley, we used to go and play rounders on the big green off of Church Road... I used to run around by the uni but I suppose that's not really Earley.

    And Lower Earley Way is my nemesis when it comes to my driving test...

    It's a bit murky here-I'm starting to stress a bit about how much I have to do to get ready for hols tomorrow which somewhat defeats the whole reason for a hols eh? (eek! Look at me getting all Canadian! eh? lol)
    Oh, I thought you was American Bunny:confused::D

Hey Bunny what you could wear at a footbal game. It would have to be incospicuous i.e. tight football top and jeans with meat pie in one hand and a bovril in the other.

    Why's this topic biased for women?

    I tend not to paint my nails or have my hair done!

    Skip the phoning about a smear test too. Even though I bet you haven't had one in 15 years have you :naughty:
    It's not all pampering being a woman you know :rotfl:
