    Gryfon - my daughter had to do this last month. We put her in a long denim skirt as it's all we had. A white blouse buttoned right up to her neck and her hair all scraped off her face and put in a pony tail and twisted so it ended up as a bun held together by a scrunchy (not sure if they had those in victorian times!!!) . Long black socks (had no tights) and her school shoes. Hope you find something - have you got any friends nearby you can borrow from? Or one of your skirts held up by a belt??? Good luck xx

    It's FRIIIDAAAAYYYYY....

    Hi girlies...I'm hooome!

    I have ironed the washing my mum very kindly draped on the maiden for me and opened the kitchen window to dry it as it was running with condensation. I hate drying indoors that's why I have a TD and a washing line... hoping for some sun tomorrow to freshen up the house and dry it. I don't care if it is cold.

    Loads to do! I will post a list tomorrow. Love the boots boss!
