I take my headscarf off to you!
In my search for badges on t'internet today I found one that says
'I am the woman your mother wanted you to marry'.
Maybe yours should read 'I am the woman your mother warned you about'!

One day, I too might wear fishnets..... but don't your legs get cold through the holes?

pigpen

of course not... I wear my woolly tights underneath!!!!

And apart from the fact I terrify my MIL because she thinks I am loopy (basically I have a brain and confuse her with basic level conversation) she actually thinks I am quite lovely.. but then my MIL is the kind of person his mother warned him about!! lol

Pigpen: you make my days!
Right back to the ironing, then washing off the line and BM on and boil up the saucepan in which I amazingly burnt the pasta (I blame you, pigen!). Now I have to put up with the smell of boiling biological washing powder, which just makes me want to throw.
