    Crikey, I'm not the only ones having problem with underwear then! If we're all having really nice dresses, we don't want to be wearing grotty underwear underneath lol. And H2B is convinced I'm going to be wearing some sexy set with suspenders, stockings and the lot :rotfl: It would be nice to cos I can't see me wearing it any other time. It's just wear to find it :confused:
  • Ann Summers is meant to be good for that kinda stuff but I'd be too embarrassed to go into the shop in town in case someone I know sees me and thinks I'm buying naughty stuff lol

    Lol, don't think I could brave Ann Summers in town. I find it hard to go into La Senza! I would love to have flesh coloured body shaping underwear but OH is already used to seeing that and if I get some sexy underwear then it saves buying him a present :rotfl: But I honestly don't think we'll be doing the usual on our wedding night because I'm sure he will be too drunk lol

    I might nip into M&S tomorrow and see what they've got. Its been a few years since I was last measured so I might see if they can do that as well - I've prob been walking around in the wrong size lol

    Why dont you try an Ann Summers night? Im having one a week tomorrow. All I have to do is get at least 8 girls there. Saves you being embarassed infront of people you dont know?
    You could always wear the shaping underwear for the day then change into something a bit more appealing later on. i think thats what Im going to do

    Lol I'd prob be more embarrased in front of the people I do know! I might have a quick look on the Ann Summers website now.

    I spoke to my friend who's doing my flowers and she got made redundant from her florist today :( I feel awful for her - I didn't like to ask about the wedding. We're meeting up on Sunday to talk about it so I hope it's still on. We were always going to do it privately (not through her florists), so it should still be on.

    What is everyone doing for their hen do. My moh has booked us into an adult only weekend at Butlins in Bognor :eek:

    Not good, But doing that might give her something to look forward to and she can always use it to go into business on her own?

    Im having a few things for my hen do. Ive got a weekend away with the girls from work. Joint celebration for 40th and 50th and my wedding.

    Got night out in benidorm while were away and then im not sure what else. I quite fancy a day to Alton Towers. lol
