How many bras do you all have? I only own two decent ones at a time and wear them to death (one has now expired), but they are so expensive for decently fitting ones (big boobs here I'm afraid).

I have six that I bought in Belgium four years ago, and another six that are considerably older than that. I'm quite small in the boob department, and have an awful job getting bras that are underwired but not padded; I found some in Brugge last time we were there, so I bought as many as I could afford!:D I really ought to get some new ones - the Brugge ones are getting a little worn, and the older ones are a total disgrace (I keep them for emergencies, like I've not felt well enough to do my washing) but I have a quandary.

I can't put on or take off a bra without assistance - even putting it on back-to-front and swivelling it round doesn't work as my fingers aren't strong enough to do the swivelling. So I don't know if I should try looking for front-fastening; or am I on a fools errand, as something in my size with underwires, no pads, nice colours, front fastening and not costing silly money is a pie-in-the-sky wish.:think:

Dogs diet isn't doing too well. Every time I go downstairs they nag me for food. Good excuse to stay up here eh?

It's difficult, because you can't explain to them that it's for the sake of their health; but try to ignore them when they beg for extras; or just offer a cuddle or a belly-rub. Eventually they'll realise that begging for more food is a waste of time and energy.

Afternoon all,

Bras....cant handle underwired but find it difficult to get something comfortable for my ample boobs and fat back!

Rain here this morning and 6c temperature, has warmed up a bit and stopped raining so might get some more gooseberries picked and elderflower for jam and cordial...if I can persuade OH to help we will get more, as he is currently sorting dinner (lo lamb, ham, spinach and mash) he may feel that thats his lot for the day.

Judi...congratula tions on imminent adoption.

Hester....assessment? How did it go?

Hugs to all....have no memory working today so positive vibes to everbody in need

Small group at knitting today, somebody brought in some battenburg cake and it was delicious if shop bought. One of our ladies has been missing for a will, started with gall bladder operation, but they have now discovered a liver problem and it doesnt sound good for her.

Lyn, enjoy your visit to Zebra, lots of cuddles.




Talk later, be good and stay safe

Afternoon all,

Still raining here. Just bought a lovely Slimming World Recipe Book for a £1 in the charity shop so pleased with that.
I'm another one with big boobs, although I've definitely lost some weight off there, so my current bras are all a bit big. I usually have a white, black and beige one to cover all eventualities. I like and underwired balcony bra, seems to give a better shape. I've found some good one in Asda living and only usually around £6 each.
I think we are man free on here at the mo so we can talk about all things girly:p

Morning All
It's one the OSers birthdays today, it's on FB, but forgot real to MSE name. So :bdaycake: to you.

Glad I'm not the only one. I get a bit mixed up too. Happy birthday to our mystery MSE'r. _party_

Oh dear, my roasts are ruined. Boiled them for 10 minutes as I usually do and they have turned to mush in the pan.

I'm wondering whether to abort the mission or get some frozen chips out.:(

Just wondering, have we any more hospital appointments coming up?

Thanks for the good wishes for our visit tomorrow everyone, I'm so looking forward to seeing my little Zebra again, I expect he's grown lots since they visited us here a few weeks ago, they do at this stage don't they, he's 18 weeks now, where has the time gone???

Bras are tricksy and I go for comfort every time. I find the sports bras from Pri*ark very comfortable and long lasting. They have nice wide straps and are soft cotton and very well made in the support deprtment. I've 4 that I run with and 2 new ones to replace old ones if anything breaks. I know you can get front fastening bras but I'm not sure where from, I'll keep an eye open whenever I'm in the city and let you know if I find anything that looks as though it might suit. Underwires are the work of the devil!!!

Non Wired Front Fastening Bra available in black or white £8.00p from George at Asda, looks OK on screen and a good price, hope that helps, Lyn xxx.

Afternoon all
Camelot, MM, my appraisal wasn't too bad, I ticked some boxes, but I'm probably still crap, lol.
New part for my machine arriving tomorrow, I should be able to get on top of work again then.
Long day again today, 6:30 til 4, but home now.
Cod in parma ham for tea, should be yummy.
Have a good evening everyone.
Hugs Hester

Raining all day today

We did the main shop today rather than tomorrow because Thursday is just too busy in aldi these days

Went to the market to get some more doughnut peaches, lettuce and jersey royals.

Happy Birthday to the mysterious o'ser, whoever you are, I have seen it on Facebook as well but can't put a MSE name to the lady in question

Dinner tonight is spicy chicken with mixed salad, corn on the cob and jersey royal potatoes.

Off to check the chicken so BFN x

Don't know if they are still made but Gossard used to make front-loaders called 'Glossies and they were very comfortable.

Back from Evita and enjoyed it although I can't say that Marti Pellow was as good as David Essex as Che either in looks or voice, but the lass who played Evita, a portugese girl, was brilliant and held the audience enthralled at the end.Thoroughly enjoyed in and we all came home singing Rainbow High :):) Just about to have some HM soup and crackers for a light supper then watch some t.v..The girls enjoyed it and I was so pleased as it was the first musical they ever saw 37 years ago in London and although the actors and sets were different the music is timeless,
Have a good evening everyone what ever you are doing Hopefully its going to be dry tomorrow as my gardener is due to cut the lawn .
Cheers chums

Mrs LW - Enjoy your trip to have cuddles with the baby, can I ask why you call him Zebra child?

I have about 30 bras! Whenever I go into marks and they have my size and the style I like I buy what they have just in case I can't get one when I need one!! I will stop for a while though as the drawer is full! I buy minimiser bras from M&S.

Chicken curry for tea which was very tasty and I made some 'millies' cookies and twinks, DS2 and DD were eating them faster than I could make them!

Happy Birthday to Mrs Mystery! Take care XX

Take care. XX
