You are as much a product of your dreams for the future as you are a product of your past.

Whitewing! You're smokin' this morning!

That's a lovely sentiment!


And that would make a lovely present embroidered or stencilled onto something!

Maybe we should all have a T-shirt with it on! :beer:

Very interesting!
I knew about girl having meant boy!
And bimbo is still Italian for a baby boy!

Just checked the online collins dictionary and you are right - hadn't heard that one before.

The one about a moment being 90 seconds is interesting, I'm sure I was told that when I was very young and asked how long a moment was.

Yes, and bimba is a baby girl, and bimbi is the collective for infants in general.


I hadn't known about moment, although I did know about ecclesiastical time dividing 24 hours, although I thought it was into 8 - hence The Hours or Divine Office - matins, lauds, prime, nones, sest, tirce, vespers and compline, for the saying of prayers, etc.

Well, I've done a sort of a pic of me in t' corset etc., for what it's worth!
Won't put it on here, but will PM anyone who wants a gander! Hahahahahaha!

I managed to lace it up of a sort, but will need help because my wrists won't let me do the final tightening up top or clipping the bag belt on properly.
I'm toying with the idea of using the black trousers instead of the red. I think they might be nicer. Will take both, though, and make a decision later. Also the trousers need ironing, so apologies for the creases!
It would look a look better with some raunchy high-heeled ankle boots! but I'd fall over, so red flats it is!

Oooooh, send me a pic!! I love seeing amazing outfits that I'd never dare to wear myself. Is there going to be anyone else there you can ask for help with doing up the corset?
Whenever I wear heels I end up barefoot after about an hour or so...

Evening Shipmates,

Hugs, squishes and handshakes to all who need them. See WaS and Mu and georgie are still MIA extra ones for you.

Pyxis, Yes I would love to see a picture of your outfit. It sounds fab to me.

And Code would love to see your outfit from the other week. As I would like to see all the hard work that you put in to it.

Everything been a bit mad. I am staying away from home a lot a now. And when away I don't have access to my laptop. As I am traveling part by bus to meet Action Man I can't carry a huge amount. And then when I get back I have tons to catch up on. Lodger keeps an eye on phoebe for me.

Meet his parents last weekend and off to sunday lunch this weekend at theirs. Should I take a little gift such as a bunch of flowers?

Funeral tomorrow but have managed to borrow a car from my dad as I am insured to drive any other car on 3rd party. I will bribe him with a big bag of black jacks to see if I can keep it for a week or two so I can get off and look at cars.

Anyway it seems to be very quiet on the thread at the moment. Sat here waiting for my dad to pick me up so I can go and get the car. So like a cat on a hot tin roof :rotfl:

Catch you all later and can't wait to see the photos Pyxis and code

Yours

Calley

Pyxis,

Wow you little minx that looks amazing. You are going to be belle of the ball and centre of attention all evening.

I hope you get chance to wear the outfit again.

Thats all I can say really is wow

You have fun when you wear it out. I think you should go down to the local supermarket dressed like that. That will turn a few heads!!!!

Yours

Calley X
