I've put the fan heater on.
Gone all wishy washy all of a sudden.
Just rang to see how much to upgrade travel insurance to worldwide. :eek:

Snags I have exactly the same problem...i am always shuffling me trousers up...

it was cold here so I put the heating on, now I am too too hot...

Wish I could say the same but Im busting out of mine :rotfl:Ah give me another couple of weeks (if I am determined enough this time) and hopefully the muffin top might have gone a bit too

Well, work is sorted. I CAN go to the ball :T

Maz, I think the postie tried to deliver your parcel this morning. Unfortunately DH was taking DS to school so wasnt in. I'll go and collect it as soon as I can. Got to leave 24 hours before we can go apparently :rolleyes:

Snaggs, well done on the size 12. I'm very jealous

well done on the size 12's.... i know a good home for any sexy size 14's when you do get round to chucking them out, <cough, cough>

dress, details please! details!!

Maz, you and I aren't far off the same size now hunny, by the time I get to a comfortable 12 (ie I can fasten them AND still breathe...lol), you'll be there too!

But if I do get to that point, I do have some really lovely jeans that will need a new home!

Just seeing if I can find a pic of my dress online - it's very very slightly on the tight side, although wearable, but because i loved it so much, I bought it anyway, in the hope that it will be a better fit in a few lbs time.

i like dresses and skirts but i have a recently aquired midgie bite problem... every time i go out running i come back with bites on my lower leg and ankle from running alongside long grass i think....

tried E45, E45hydrocortisone, Sudocrem, generic nappy cream and savlon all without much effect to existing bites.... can anyone recommend a good cream.... up until now i was a sudocrem on everything kinda gal but it ain't working......

You must have tasty legs Might be better putting some sort of repellent on to stop them biting in the first place. Hydrocortisone is usually good for treating them though

This is my fave dress that I bought recently - only had one occasion to wear it at so far though sadly..

i think it was the fake tan that tempted them at first... i've stopped that now. but i think i am just seen as fair game whenever i pass obviously.... honestly my legs are bitten to pieces!! not attractive!

no bites anywhere else!

woe is me!

Maz, there's an Avon mosituriser that apparently the little biters HATE - my Mum gets really badly bitten and she finds it really helps - will investigate for you (unless anyone else knows?).

Squizz, gorgeous dress! :T
