    You can either go to photobucket and upload it and copy the link from there, or if it's on a website sometimes you can copy and paste the pic from the site.

    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    Oh thank you, that's hilarious....I read it seriously for the first couple of lines, but then the penny dropped !!! So..........

    I have taken the bull by the horns and ordered the perfect dress which I have fllen in love with.....yes it's strapless !!! Woo-hoo !! All I need now are skyscraper heels and a gorgeous little bag, just big enough to put my hipflask in for a snifter of Dutch courage before the big event.

    @janiebaby29...thank you for your gorgeous pics hun....you look beautiful.

    Now if I can work out how I will post a pic of the dress I've chosen....would love your feedback.

    Thanks again to you all x

    Janiebaby - you look fabulous

    Jinnyfrizz, my mum is 50, and looks AMAZING in strapless dresses (in fact she looks a damn site better than me in pretty much everything - very unfair lol)
