Neverdespairgirl!

I just now sent an email taken in dictation to someone near you. I hope you will ensure he knows typos and stuff are mine, dh is perfectly literate!

I can share my cuppa and rhubarb crumble if that helps?

Rhubarb is one of my favourite things in the world. But i still think to ight i would rather have a beer. My cuppa vanilla tea just isn't cutting it.

I love rhubarb crumble. Yummy. Has to be with my mum's custard though or it just doesn't cut it.

On a totally different subject I went to the supermarket tonight and came home with a pair of trousers by Gok Wan. A sale bargain nonetheless. I then had a conversation with DH that went something like this:

"Oh my God, what have you got there?"

"They are my new trousers, from the Gok range"

"Gok, more like shock... And when I say ..ock, I mean ..it"

"So you don't like them then"

"No! They look like something a supermodel might wear. Only in that size, something a very pregnant supermodel might wear".

I like them though, but doubt that they will make many journeys out of the wardrobe as they aren't really practical. If anyone is wondering, they are the floral ones part way down the page in this article:

Yes thanks viva. They are very.....impactful. . I think i can see them with wedges and a very, very plain t in one of the colours.
Edit; they look awful with the top.
I quite like the tux.

I would never, ever, wear anything like that with the top - it is far too much. I don't really like patterned tops but I have a thing about whacky bottoms (by which chaps I mean interesting trousers and skirts, not other possible double entendres). I was thinking of a very plain black wrap top with them. I may not keep them (haven't even tried them on yet) but they appealed to me as something I could wear on holiday with a wrap ballerina top and sunglasses and possibly a big floppy hat. The Sainsbury's I got them at didn't have changing rooms.

I'd never wear them to the library though. Even the books would tell me to shhhh!!!

I love those trousers!

Not that I would ever buy them or wear them but if I was allowed to indulge, I would get them.
