    I asked what he meant and he said 'like one of those on the bikes' and that I just needed a leather jacket?' :huh: I said I do have a leather jacket and said I should wear it!!!!!

    Oh well, anything to make my image a bit more glam, however bizarre!! :rotfl:

    I was told at work today I looked like a 'rocker' and a 'hell's angel'. :huh: I was like.......I must be the least hell's angel looking person ever!!

    For work I was wearing black flat pointy shoes, black trousers, a 2 in 1 top/jumper which is black/white chiffon patterned sleeves/collar with a black 'tanktop' style jumper bit. Can't quite see the Hell's Angel in that?!

    Predominantly black BB, so maybe a bit goth looking. I'd take it as a compliment, he could have said you looked like a librarian, so he's probably pointing to your wild side. I think you have one of them :D

    lol.......no, he wasn't chatting me up in any way. He's very politically incorrect, but in a funny way rather than offensive. He is the Health and Safety Officer (part of his job ) and can't stand Health and Safety :rotfl:

    Don't listen to this lot. I don't have a wild side. The wildest I get is a night out in Reading in the rain. :D
