    I don't have a strong Liverpool accent except for "certain words" for which you need to imagine it sounding like "serten werrrds". And the accent definitely comes out when strong drink has been taken, or I've been home. Otherwise, I'm a posh bird, me!

    Ok, Now I have to completely change my imagined picture of PLMBL !

    It's funny how we build mental pictures of all our friends on here isn't it. I wonder how many of them are anywhere close to reality!!

    Ok, just for you Mara, here goes;

    I'm 5"8.
    I have curly red/blonde hair. It's naturally curly and when it's in good condition people say it looks like Mariah Carey's when she first became famous.
    I'm a big girl, size 16-18 but I have a very womanly hourglass figure. I cling to the fact that I go in in the middle :rotfl:.
    My boobs are so big I would probably topple over if I was skinny :o.

    So that's me! I said on another thread recently that DH says I'm beautiful inside and out. I believe him about the inside. Outside I'm average! I do produce beautiful children though :D.

  • :rotfl: thanks for clearing that up plmbl I wasn't sure what pik yakker was :huh: :rotfl:

    A pit-yacker is a Geordie term of abuse for the inhabitants of mining villages of Northumberland. Elswick is a poor and, dare I say, lower class area of Newcastle.

    I live in a former pit village :rotfl:

  • Satchmo I will forever more read your posts in a Liverpudlian accent! DFW you will sound cockney when I read yours!!

    So today DH went with DS1 on a school trip. I was nervous about him going but 2 of my close friends were also going and the teacher was fully aware of DH's problems so we agreed he should go. I was more nervous about him than DS1 but it all went ok. I think he was tired out by it though as he quickly got snappy when he got home. I was wishing he was going on another trip tomorrow! We are friends again now though.

    DS2 and I had some quality time together while they were out. We also got his haircut at a fab kids hair salon called Fidgets :D. They sit the kids in toy cars to cut their hair rather than chairs and they play cartoons etc to keep them entertained. It was reasonably priced at £6 too :T

    Confession time! I've gained 5lbs :eek: Gutted and a bit shocked that it was so much but not unexpected. I comfort ate my way through the whole week. Will try my best to lose it all again this week. On the positive though I won the raffle so next week is free :j £5 in my pocket.

  • Yay I love that you were all replying while I was taking ages to type the last post! That's what you get when you go to the loo mid-type :o.

    Thank you all for your descriptions. When we all meet up someday there will be no need to wear carnations and meet under the clock :p
