we plait 3 legs together and make 'monkey tails'.. keep a waistband attached to the 2 legs and plait a third in cut along the front of the waistband and it holds the tail on.
cut off a leg.. tie it really tightly to fit your head.. perfect hair band to keep hair out of your slap while you get it perfect for a night out!
the toes are great if you wear your hair in a bun too.. scure with a bobble or scrunchie!
draught excluders in winter.. my gran would stuff hers with newspaper or other pairs of dead tights and use as a draught excluder.. until the dog humped it to death!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0
