Primark usually have plain bra's in, little bit lacey in white/black, they look better on than on the hanger. Bravismo is good too but a bit pricey, its a stuggle when you wear an odd size, I used to be a 32E which was even more of a headache!
It's a well established fact that if you have big t*ts and wide feet you don't want to look good, whatever your age![SIZE=-1]"Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad"[/SIZE]

:wave: welcome becky
sistercas - I would echo becky and rachel and say bravissimo - they are amazing. They aren't cheap, but you can be lucky in the sales. I love their clothing too as it's taliored really well for top heavy girls. I have a wonderful bright pink silk dress from them that really turns heads. Oddly, also I find Next bras fit me really well too and they are cheaper generally, if a bit dull looking
One thing I would say is make sure she tries them all on before she buys them - as one size for one manufacturer may not fit in another, also where the underwire sits in relation to your body shape is really important.It's a well established fact that if you have big t*ts and wide feet you don't want to look good, whatever your age!

Just quiclkly popping on to say afternoon.
Me and mindee have just been surfing the Cbeebies website and now she's done a runner to the other room I've sneaked on here
Not much OS going on. It's beautfiul here, lovely and sunny with a nice breeze so one load of washing is on the line.
Heading off to Stratford tonight with the kids. We'd normally go and see the Xmas lights but they're not up until next week so will have a walk round and maybe have some chips and a hot chocolate (not at the same time of course!!!!)
Have quickly read all your posts so apologies for not replying with more detail.
Lowesly - Hugs - it is stressful xx
Sunnygirl - sorry to hear about your H's job xx

lowesly - I wanted to PM you about something but I am unable to do so (I assume due to your post count not being high enough or something). I just wanted to suggest http://www.accessdiagnostics.co.uk/ for some Ovulation Predictor Kits (the Clearblue ones are sooooooo expensive). I've not used this company personally but many girls on a baby forum I use have and they seem to think they work. At least next month you could get an OPK and test to see if you are ovulating or not.

Thanks Bitsy. I've used OPK's before and didn't get a positive result even when I definitely did ov! I think my body is just awkward like that! I chart my temperatures though, but I just know I've not ov'd this cycle and I didn't ov the cycle before last either. Just so frustrating as my cycles are so long anyway...
I have taken positive action today though and am going to see the doctor on Tuesday. He was quite understanding about my last anovulatory cycle but he thought it was most likely a one off.
Anyway sorry for the o/t people and thanks so much for thinking of me Bitsy xxSometimes that mountain you've been climbing is just a grain of sand,
What you've been out there searching for forever is in your hands0 -
Afternoon all.
SG sorry to hear about your DH's job. Bummer.:(
My hand's still sore, but is healing up quite nicely now, so as it's good drying weather, I've had a blitz on the pile of wash-by-hand-in-cold-water items that was threatening to turn into Mount Washmore.
I hope the weekend is good, as there's some tidying outside that needs doing, which will require Mr LW's assistance.
I was just ferreting:search: through one of the kitchen cupboards, and found a bottle of cherry brandy liqueur I'd forgotten we had. No, I'm not going to open it, but it was a nice surprise.:dance::beer:
Mushroom risotto for dins tonight; and see if I can persuade Mr LW to spend the evening bashing trolls rather than going to the pub.
(((HUGS))) to all who want/need one today.If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Hellooooooooo again!
I haven't caught up on the thread at all but wanted to dive in and say that my Thorntons parcel arrived this morningand I can honestly say that PURELY in the interests of ensuring things were all Ok for everyone online that might have ordered; the fudge has been well and truly checked for quality control and I have in fact de-cluttered most of the bag of it already, and have tested the Belgian chocolates to make sure they are chocolatey enough. They are, by the way, so you can eat them with confidence!!
I am willing to sacrifice anything for a good cause.
I do look a bit like this though ->
As an added bonus, the free hamper comes in a fabulous box that I shall be keeping - not sure what for, but something craft-y I am thinking.
Now I think I need to go lie down as my sugar high is about to wear off and I cannot face anymore fudge. (It was a BIG bag!):rotfl:
Diva.x
P.S. ROSYRED.. you daft apath, if you read my very first post today it tells you that Oakham chickens are in the deal cos I cooked one... :rotfl::rotfl: I will be running a test later on the finer points of my posts so pay attention... :rotfl::rotfl:To be frugal, you need to spend money wisely, simply spending less is not enough.If you can't handle me at my worst then you don't deserve me at my best...Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I will try again tomorrow.0 -
Rosyred- the Oakham chickens are definately in the meal deal this week.
So sorry to hear your news Sunnygirl.x0
