Could organise an NP meetup ... bound to be 2-3 in the region that could, potentially, make it.lemonjelly wrote: »Weymouth is looking quite possible...0 -
The fashion over the summer in Aus for women's dresses has been very low cut and hugging the breasts with a very high hemline.
That includes in the workplace.
TBH it's annoys the hell out of me when I talk to a woman at work that she is tugging at her hem 2-3 times each minute while her breasts are mostly in display. Then if I look at what's being pointed at me (which I have zero interest in at work) then I'm the bad person.
I have the decency to turn up to work dressed modestly. My colleagues, male or female, should do the same.
Maybe try some hot pants the next hot day gen?0 -

Well, this morning I decided to make something that I bought a kit for 2 years ago.... it needs time/space/concentration, so had no chance until now. Dug the box out - read the box. Googled for more information .... and now I find I need a lot more stuff before I can get started as it's not as easy as buying the kit and doing it.
Isn't that always the way.
But, I did find out that what I had planned to do wouldn't work (would yield unsatisfactory end results) - and so just that bit will now cost me £10 to fix instead of the £2 solution I'd got planned from the 99p shop.
I now need to: order stuff online, visit a chemist for some other supplies, expect the project to take 3 days, order more supplies (online), get some particular glue ..... find my extra fine sanding paper ..... before I can even attempt this kit thing. I have to get it right as the materials/kit I bought cost me £20 and I'd hate to yield unsatisfactory results just for "the experience" and still have to buy the other things.
That was cryptic wasn't it. Keyword: resin.0 -

Some of us do.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0 -

I completely agree, it's just not appropriate. I wouldn't feel comfortable dressed like that at work, anyway.
Perhaps, if you can't beat them, you should join them? With a Borat-style lime-green mankini, and thigh-high boots?...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

When you've little money, you have to spend 100x as long making sure you've got everything "just right" before you use stuff.... as there's no second chances.0 -

I admit, I would wear either short skirts or some cleavage in the past in work environments. I am afraid I am one of the women who utilised the presumption of others to my advantage. I don't mean I would have been laying it out in front of people necessarily, but....neither did one have to go hunting for it too much. A side note to this is if you have big tits and are a small clothes size the button that you really should do up on a shirt at work just doesn't do up, and a size bigger is too big.0 -
I used to try to buy double-fronted shirts in the main - then I swapped to slip on tops without buttons at the front at all to get round it. Shirts NEVER fitted... and that button was always a problem. I have no buttoned shirts for work, all mine are now just "tops".lostinrates wrote: »A side note to this is if you have big tits and are a small clothes size the button that you really should do up on a shirt at work just doesn't do up, and a size bigger is too big.0
