    Also my bra has sprouted a leak again on the other side. I now need to stitch the boning in on that side now. Does anyone get on ok with no underwire? It seems to be the only way to go as I'm going through too many bras.


    Fuddle, I'm well endowed shall we say but can't get on with underwires, so have soft cup cotton bras.
    My self & hubby; 2 sons (30 & 26). Hubby also a found daughter (37).
    Eldest son has his own house with partner & her 2 children (11 & 10)
    Youngest son & fiancé now have own house.
    So we’re empty nesters.

    The preppers thread is attracting excitement :D

    mama I'm a 32K :eek: A lot of my support comes from around my small back. I have found one in my size (which isn't easy to do :eek: ) I am debating whether to try it and use it as a sleep bra if not. I have tried taking the bone out of an underwired bra and that didn't work too loose.

    In a dilemma.I wish I had money to waste sometimes as my brain would not have to wrangle with such daft issues :cool::o

    OK I'll help with the prepping thread. Going to have a look to see if Mar has started one yet ....

    A crap day here - set off on my bike to go out but it started to rain so I came home, and slept all afternoon :eek:. Oh well, I must have needed it ...

    Well if you slept as you say you needed it, you look after yourself to many bugs going around with all these weather changes......

    Hugs and Lovexxx

    PAH

    I was the one cooking lamb casserole which me and DH thoroughly enjoyed.

    Do not think it was the casserole as DH is fine and I felt a bit odd earlier but have just been sick :eek:

    Decided to pack myself off to bed and keep out of the way for the rest of today in case it is a virus. Or I could just have eaten too much
    :o
    .



    Aw poor you, I hope its nothing more than a 12hr/24hr bug and you wake up feeling better tomorrow.

    My lamb casserole came out fine - ended up in for over 2 hrs as son popped round and we were chatting but he didn't want any and we hate to eat if he won't so I just kept it going till we wanted it and was fine.

    Am now about to try biscuits in it - bought the bisucit maker from AJ along with Scarlett so being very lazy and letting BM mix the dough and then I will pipe them out with the biscuit maker.
