    Talking of X Factor...we have had a flurry of activity on our own website for a dress that didn't sell that well and has been on sale for a while.
    All very strange.

    Then I found out today someone wore it on X Factor ..for auditions....except, I have googled auditions and can't see it anywhere...I am a bit lost as I could shift the last few units with a bit of telly linked promo...every little helps.

    Anyone got a good memory for dresses and auditions? I assume Cheryl or Simon didn't deem it hideous...or maybe they did...so it's more 'cool' now?

    I have just wasted 2 hour of my life looking at audition clips...all seem to be official too...so you have to suffer an ad or 2 too.

    I quite fancy Cheryl Cole too. But then I catch sight of that finger tattoo and can then only imagine her as what she would have been without X-Factor: a chavvy lass in Gateshead, working part-time at Iceland with a sizeable crack habit.

    It's amazing what a bit of fame, money, a dentist and airbrushing can do.

    Dressed and looking a bit like her 29yr older sister?

    fc, pm me a pic of the dress if you like. I've watched most of the series and may be able to help, I used to work in continuity so I've got a reasonable eye for detail when watching TV. Can't promise, but might be worth a shot.

    Yesterday the 28-year-old broke cover to give a self-serving interview to a downmarket tabloid,     :rotfl:

    'Let me remove' - but a mere 2 posts up you claimed 'I wont be deleting anything, never have, never will.'.

    How weak is the male resolve. :rolleyes:

    How typical of [strike]a woman[/strike] carolt ;)
    I correct myself after it being pointed out and I'm still in the wrong ;)

    Can you accept when you are incorrect and out your hands up and say you were wrong? I can

    For the record, I have never deleted a post.

    Was my earlier comment on your joke a sore point, ISTL? ;)


    Re wageslave, I was suddenly struck by the solution to her lovelife.

    I won't post it now - seems wrong on a Monday afternoon.

    All will be revealed at an appropriate moment.

    Because I know what wageslave truly needs is some cod psychology from a complete stranger on the internet.

    PM me your cunning plan.

    I dont think my ego could take any more public humiliation:o
