    I told you, I never get it quite right.

    I actually got up and looked in the full length mirror on the stairs and you may well be right:o

    Umm, apropos of nothing at all. How do you feel about over the knee boots?[/QUOTE]

    I have many things I would like to say about such footwear, the vast majority of which would be wholly unsuitable for a thread such as this.

    Actually, over the knee boots simply result in me actually becoming my username.

    A complete inability to communicate also tends to occur!

    I actually bought these........

    Direct from Bertie and much cheaper.

    Should I cancel?

    To quote Bart Simpson, "hubba hubba!"

    Buy them & love yourself in em!

    I also see someone refer to your "celtic-ness" which got me thinking. On a board, there are no accents. Be interesting the range of accents which we actually all hold!

    Er, no it wasn't...it was this thread, by me, about 20 pages ago!

    Although it was such a good story it probably ran over several threads. :)

    lir I think this thread http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=2263781 is the one you have in mind, where we meandered aimlessly onto pj's. But I think there was a thread prior to it was started on the basis of tesco asking customers not to wear nightwear when shopping.

    I had an "important meeting" today, mentioned earlier in the thread ... I was offered the offer, but enough of that.

    I wore: size 8 jeans, that don't fit as I put on a stone over Xmas, random top that sort of fitted a bit and hid the big muffin top of the jeans and I had nothing else that fitted. Over that a hoody. On my feet some 10 year old walking boots. My top quality bag was a big faded beach bag I bought 2 years ago for £2.99.

    I was "hired" for a gig based on my knowledge... not my fashion sense.

    :)
